Fans decked out in Panthers gear leapt into the air, grabbed each others' hands and waved flags with pride as they beamed from ear to ear.
On Bird Road outside famed Cuban restaurant La Carreta, a caravan made its way down the street bordered by fans. People stuck their heads out of sunroofs to the the emblematic South Florida celebratory noise: the bangs of pots and pans.
And of course, fans lucky enough to be at the Amerant Bank Arena made it rain fake rats after the winner-take-all showdown.
Other South Florida teams hyped up the new champions on social media. The Dolphins and Marlins posted a congratulatory message, with the latter reminding fans that Panthers Night is Sept. 6 at LoanDepot Park.
The Miami Heat put up a screenshot of the winning score along with a video of the young fan that went viral for his energetic chant. Inter Miami only needed one word: vamos!
And the work for Atlas Embroidery and Screen Printing in Fort Lauderdale continued Tuesday, as they cranked out Stanley Cup champions t-shirts and other swag and shipped them out to major retailers the same day.
"I can't even put it into words, it's so amazing, especially being the first championship for the Panthers," production manager Alex Dones said. "We thought we would be doing this last year, so it's just full circle now. It came around, and we're all super hyped up to be doing it."
