But the catfish craze, an apparent Music City tradition that did a fine job delaying the Stanley Cup Final on occasion, extended into the Penguins fan base after Pittsburgh's repeat championship.
From Antonella Crescimbeni, a photojournalism intern for The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, comes the celebratory sight of a Pens fan -- with plenty of Steel City faithful apparently cheering him on -- sinking his teeth right into a bloody catfish:

Makes you wonder whether anyone -- anyone -- in that crowd is even remotely concerned for that man's stomach.
