The chair was crafted by JERSEY CHAIR CO. from Headingley, Manitoba. If you like this unique type of Memorabilia then you can check their web site Jerseychair.com for more details. All of the chairs are custom crafted and they make them with your own personal jerseys or you can use one from the pros.

After checking out their web site I decided go to google to see if there are others that do this and well sure enough I found another site (Chairsrus.ca). These chairs were not quite the same as the first ones but they were cheaper and had lots of custom Crosby Chairs in their photo gallery. Here are a few of them here:

Great clip from the hit CBC show “This Hour has 22 minutes” where Shaun Majumder explains to Sidney Crosby mathematically how he thinks that Canada will win the Gold medal at the 2010 Olympics.

The Cran family purchased two of the $10 posters (the one that the money went to charity), allowing them to enter their sons’ names in the special draw for a chance to meet Crosby and get a picture taken with the Cup. This was the special draw that had only 87 names selected  ( matching Crosby’s number and the year he was born). And as luck would have it, Liam and JJ were both among the winning 87 names selected. One of the brothers were also only one of two people from the photo shoots to get a Crosby autograph.

We had some photos submitted to us recently revealing a real shin digg of a party at Mario Lemieux’s place where the Stanley Cup ended up going for a swim in the pool.  And according to NHL Stanley Cup legends and past stories, it was not the first time that the Stanley Cup has been in Mario’s pool.

“So … how did Lord Stanley’s mug end up in the bottom of Mario’s pool? After the Pittsburgh Penguins’ first Cup win in 1991/1992, the team was invited back to Mario’s palatial home to celebrate. The house featured an in-ground swimming pool. The pool’s decorative highlight was a four-tier neon-lit waterfall. During the course of the party, Penguins goaltender Tom Barrasso climbed up the waterfall with the Cup, and had his photo taken. After much more of this, the Cup was left atop the waterfall and the party went on. Meanwhile, defenseman Phil Bourque, who had been enjoying a frosty alcoholic beverage or two, decided to scale the waterfall. According to legend, clad only in his underwear, Bourque lifted the Cup and hurled it into the pool, where it sank ignominiously to the bottom. Since that infamous day, the Cup travels with security escorts assigned by the NHL.”

Update:We have found the photos on other blogs and websites (no surprise as most email forwards travel fast …) however most have been removed out of respect to Mario (and the people in them whom we can not identify), so we have done the same. (The photos are still posted on some blogs such as this one- if you still wanted to check them out)
