Comment on Alex Ovechkin does Cup stand and swims in fountains as Capitals celebrate championship at Georgetown Waterfront by TJ Oshie details origin of Stanley Cup keg stand and how Alex Ovechkin was first player to participate: ‘There’s not a better guy to party with than the big man’ | RMNB

After winning the Stanley Cup Thursday night, the Caps have partied in a hotel lobby, a Las Vegas nightclub, a charter flight, a Clarendon bar, Nationals Park, and now the Georgetown Waterfront. Ovechkin capped this off with the old hockey tradition of jumping into a fountain, taking off your shirt, swimming, doing pushups, and then jumping up and down with his teammates and a bunch of random people in khaki shorts. important video I have acquired from the waterfront @dcsportsbog pic.twitter.com/RqsIW18Jhj — Perry Mattern (@pmattern7) June 9, 2018
