The Tampa Bay Lightning are representing Champa Bay!
Lightning definitely struck twice and Lord Stanley is here to stay. Here’s a look at the fun going on along the Hillsborough River celebrating their win!
The festivities started at the Davis Island Yacht Club where the players boarded their boats. As they made their way along the Hillsborough River they greeted fans and showed off the Stanley Cup, Prince of Wales Trophy and the Conn Smythe Trophy. Many of the players ditched their shirts to soak in the July Florida sun (hope they wore their sunscreen.)
