Adin Hill and the Vegas Golden Knights held their first ever Stanley Cup Parade Saturday night, and it was one for the ages.
Shenanigans on the Strip
From William Karlsson drunkenly making speeches to the night time atmosphere on the Vegas Strip, the parade will be remembered for ages.
Breakout Goaltender Adin Hill had a quote for the ages during the parade, making reference to a beloved 2000's era sports comedy.
Quoting Comedy Legend
Bud Light in hand (this may have had an effect on Hill during the interview), Hill invoked iconic Will Ferrell character Ricky Bobby during an interview.
It's pretty wild. I don't know what to do with my hands right now." -Adin Hill
This of course was a reference to 2006 comedy classic Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
In the film, Will Ferrell plays Ricky Bobby a talented but clueless NASCAR driver who is unsure of interview etiquette.
What Comes Next?
Both Adin Hill and Ricky Bobby are proven winners, both being on top of their respective sports worlds.
While Will Ferrell never reprised his role as Ricky Bobby, Hill a free agent's story is only just beginning.
An unrestricted free agent in July, Hill is due a big raise. Does he run it back in Vegas, or cash in with a new team and try to recreate his Stanley Cup magic?
