Motown And The Steel City Hit The Ice For The Stanley Cup
The Stanley Cup Finals are in full swing this week, as the Pittsburgh Penguins and Detroit Red Wings hit the ice to battle for one of the sporting world’s most famous trophies. The Penguins may have next generation stars like Sidney Crosby, but the Red Wings know what they are doing and handed the Penguins a defeat in last year’s finals.
Both cities follow their teams closely, so most eyes will be focused on the ice. However, if you feel the need to wander, here’s what each arena has to offer for those less interested in the game.

Brewskis in Pittsburgh and Atlantic City
The Slavs are marching! Venerable cataloguer and tracker of all things Slavic in the city, Slavs of New York! is planning to, uh, expand the franchise by covering Slavic events in other cities. First on the list are Pittsburgh and Atlantic City. We think those are good steps, though we'll be the first to admit we have no idea about Slavic goings on in Atlantic City.
Still, we're surprised their not doing Chicago first. Is it too Polish oriented? We know that people jokingly refer to it as the second largest Polish city after Warsaw, so it certainly makes sense to us. Covering the sausage alone would take ages, but we're biased towards pork products and/or byproduct ourselves. We're curious to see what develops.
