Tossing a catfish on the ice at PPG Paints Arena before Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final? That will get you tossed and charged with three misdemeanors (the charges were later dropped).
But eating a raw catfish, a not-so-subtle jab at the Nashville Predators' fish-tossing tradition, after your Pittsburgh Penguins win their second straight Stanley Cup? Rock on.

A victory parade in Pittsburgh is reportedly in the works, but the date is still to be confirmed.
