One of the reasons for going to Milwaukee today was that Chicago was going to be full of Chicago Blackhawks fans - there was a victory parade for the team that won the Stanley Cup (for the third time in 6 years) earlier this week. There were apparently around 2 million people in Chicago today, and you saw them pouring in at the station when I departed this morning. It has been a big thing - leading the local news all week. Like a lot of US sports the final was played over the best of 7 legs, with the Blackhawks winning 4-2 in Chicago on Monday.
(If you, like me, wouldn't know what sport the Stanley Cup is in, it is Ice Hockey, and therefore great for June!)
