There is nothing better than drinking out of a trophy. It is a time honored tradition started by NHL teams but it works for every sport. Nothing says champion like drinking out of an expensive cup. Which makes me question whether commissioners try to stop it. Alcohol can probably ruin the silver so do they have to get the trophy touched up after every championship drinking binge or do the insides of these cups get worse every year? These are questions I will never get answered unless I manage to win the MLS Cup and I don’t see that happening anytime soon.
