The Stanley Cup is back in the Sunshine State. Over the weekend, Florida Panthers forward Evan Rodrigues took his turn spending a special day with the Stanley Cup. A father of three young children, Rodrigues decided to take the most special trophy in the world to the most magical place on earth. That’s right, the Rodrigues clan brought Lord Stanley to Disney World. After arriving at the Four Seasons Resort at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Rodrigues, his family and the Cup boarded the Skyliner and enjoyed a ride all the way to Epcot. While there, Rodrigues and his family visited all 11 different country pavilions with the Cup, according to NHL.com [https://www.nhl.com/news/evan-rodrigues-takes-stanley-cup-to-disney-world-in-florida]. He made sure to visit France and stuff some Remy the rat dolls inside the Stanley Cup [https://x.com/ratsrunthiscity/status/1959704743263051928/photo/1], a nod to Florida’s rat-throwing tradition. The Panthers also posted some great photos on Instagram, including one of Rodrigues’ kids all drinking what appeared to be chocolate milk out of the Cup while using some very long red and white striped straws.
