With the Stanley Cup playoffs upon us, fans will be growing out their mullets and playoff beards, and stuff like the Bacon Stanley Cup will happen.
Brought to us by Bar Brutus in Montreal, the replica of Lord Stanley’s Cup replaces silver with yummy pork fat, and is ready for the Canadiens’ playoff run.
Don’t be surprised if the Habs tank in the first round of the playoffs, knowing that a bacon trophy is waiting for them.

Of all the things hockey players do with the Stanley Cup — such as drinking beer from it, using it to bathe a small child, or making jell-o — someone’s had to have eaten some popcorn out of it.
Either way, anyone can now act like a champion, with The Stanley Cup Popcorn Maker. Hockey’s holy grail will make a batch of popcorn in the bottom half, while the top cup part will act as a serving bowl.
Get the full experience by engraving the names of all of your guests on the side, and then throwing it in the pool.*
*please don’t do either of these things.
