Penguins Fans Celebrate Stanley Cup Win By Chowing Down On Raw Catfish

Downtown Pittsburgh probably has some solid food options, but some Penguins fans only had one postgame meal choice Sunday night: raw catfish.

The Penguins used a late goal (not to mention a controversial call) to beat the Nashville Predators in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final to become the first team in almost 20 years to win back-to-back Cups.

Throughout the playoffs, the Preds’ tradition of throwing catfish on the ice became a fairly prominent storyline. So when the Penguins put the finishing touches on the Cup win — on Nashville’s home ice, no less — an alarming amount of Penguins fans opted to celebrate by chowing down on raw catfish.
