    Florida Panthers players headed to Fort Lauderdale to keep the party going after winning the Stanley Cup Monday night

    Florida Panthers players headed to Fort Lauderdale to keep the party going after winning the Stanley Cup Monday night

    The Stanley Cup had a fun day in Fort Lauderdale on Tuesday.

    Just hours after the Florid Panthers defeated the Edmonton Oilers in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final, members of the team headed east from Amerant Bank Arena to continue their celebrations.

    In a moment that will likely live on in Stanley Cup lore for a long, long time, Matthew Tkachuk brought the massive trophy onto the sand of Fort Lauderdale Beach and headed straight for the Atlantic Ocean.

    Tkachuk removed his championship belt and flip flips before running into the surf with the Stanley Cup raised above his head and diving into the water.

    The fun didn’t stop there.

    Several Panthers players including Tkachuk, Sasha Barkov, Sam Bennett, Steven Lorentz, Aaron Ekblad and Brandon Montour brought the Stanley Cup across A1A to Elbo Room to celebrate some more with their fans.

    A few lucky Cats fans got close enough to drink from the Stanley Cup while others had massive amounts of beer dumped on them from the Elbo Room balcony.

    Check out all the fun in the social media posts above and below:
