Chicago's Stanley Cup Celebrations Got a Little Nuts

The Chicago Blackhawks won their second Stanley Cup in four years by defeating the Boston Bruins Monday night. The game ended around 10 p.m. Chicago time, allowing locals to get in several hours of celebration.

Although 2010's celebrations served as a spiritual cleansing of sorts for Blackhawks fans, last night's managed to be similarly robust and, predictably, not everyone was able to stay within the law. Among the alleged transgressions: throwing beer bottles and cans at police horses; throwing glass bottles at police vehicles; climbing on top of traffic poles, cars, and bus shelters. Chicago police said that by sunrise, a total of 23 arrests had been made and 21 tickets issued.
