The morning after the Cardinals were eliminated from World Series contention, St. Louis sports fans had a more joyous reason to feel the Blues. The Stanley Cup, won by the St. Louis Blues in June, made its way to Washington, D.C., Wednesday and was on display for public viewing.

Although the Blues won the 2019 NHL championship, their fans weren’t the only ones lining up to sneak a peak at the coveted traveling trophy, as Washington Capitals and Toronto Maple Leafs fans also made appearances.
