To the Washington Capitals Hockey fan's from a Chicago Blackhawks fan..........congratulations
Washington becomes a sea of red in celebration of the Capitals’ first Stanley Cup championship
Downtown Washington turned red Thursday afternoon and evening, as fans turned out in unprecedented numbers to watch Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals.
The area around Capital One Arena was packed for blocks in every direction; fans queued up in massive lines outside bars, restaurants, sandwich shops and liquor stores. They filled the G Street watch party between 7th and 9th Streets hours before the Washington Capitals began their quest to clinch their first Stanley Cup. Meanwhile, thousands poured into a different watch party inside the arena.
Inside the arena, fans roared during every pregame clip of the Capitals, roared during every near miss, roared during the first intermission when Caps broadcasters led a round of “Let’s Go Caps!” chants. When Washington killed a second-period power play, the noise inside the arena was earsplitting. When Jakub Vrana scored on a breakaway moments later, the noise was … what’s louder than ear-splitting?
