The Cup isn’t under constant security?

Nope, every member of the wining team gets a chance to take it for a few days during their tenure. When I drank from it, it was actually slated to be at a charity fund raiser the next day, but Brian took it out the night before to some of his favorite local places.
There is probably some "security", but it is obviously pretty loose. I don't remember any, but it could have been there.
There was an article a couple of years ago about all the places the Cup has been, and what gross things were done in it. It was very humorous, and I will try and find it on line again.

According to this story, the cup is now always accompanied by an official from the NHL, so somebody must have been there. They must just stand in the background, and let fans have fun with it (as it should be).

Red Wings really fought for the win, and the Penguins were running around way too much in their own end. I thought they were cooked in the 3rd.

They were booing Bettman, everybody booes Bettman, the most hated commish in sports history. I thought it was really cool they stayed through so much of the celebration. You expect cities that never see the Cup to stick around but Wings fans have seen the Cup a lot lately.

They’re there, but unless it’s actually going to damage the Cup they let the players do what want. Vast quantities of many types of alcohol have been drunk from the Cup. The trick is to not use a polish that leaches off in the booze and makes people sick.

It’s a great day for Penguin’s hockey:-)

The Cup got banged up pretty bad when Lamieux had it in his pool.
I loved watching the players holding up the cup in Detroit.
Hershey Bears are holding a celebration tomorrow night at the arena in Hershey after their win tonight at Manitoba for the Calder Cup. I will be there.
Wonder when the Burgh will have the celebration for the Pens?
