Jimmy,

If it's like the one in 2000, yes there will be beer. What they did was bring all of the portable vending carts (the same ones you see on the CAA concourse during games) out into the parking lot, oops, I mean party area. I think same (high) prices as at games. They also had lots of food vendors. There are merchandise tables too.

The atmosphere was alot of fun. They had a "fan fest" area with an inflatable attraction where you can take slap shots on "Marty" and see how fast you scored, a rink set up where they played some roller hockey games, companies and radio stations were giving out stuff and broadcasting live from the party, they handed out alot of extra stuff from the Playoff games....towels, pom poms, etc. Kids were using the plastic garbage barrels as goals and playing roller hockey in the parking lot. Live music, lots of fun. Nice to see the guys come on stage with their families and speak at the podium. All in all a good time for devs fans!

I was thinking about how other fans make fun of the Devils b/c their Cup celebration is in a parking lot.....then I thought how stupid that sounds. We've won the Cup 3 times in the past 9 years...who but the Wings fans would have any other say about what is the right way to celebrate the Stanley Cup????

Really when was the last time a Flyer, Leaf, or any other fans (save Aves or Detroit) has had a Cup celebration???

It's laughable!!

Parade...what a joke!! Give me the lot party!!

GO DEVILS!!!

Can't make it this time.  ANyone know if it will be televised?

Yeah, I heard it's going to be on ABC at 1:00 pm. It was on the news last evening here in NYC. I assume it'll be on in NJ's ABC too.

If they announced in, then it is only going to be on WABC Ch.7 in NY.

(not other abc affiliates around the country).

Has anyone ever gone to a parade on B'way? There's a million people there and confetti all over the place. That's great!!! But the players go down B'way to the park and it's over!! We're talking about a festival with beer and food and booths for games and prizes and ROOM. As wonderful and exhilerating as B'way is, you're crushed. Guys, dont downplay this "Street Fair" it's great!!
