00:00It is Alexander Barkoff's day with the Stanley Cup.
00:04Oh, Barky.
00:05Where is it?
00:06Is he here?
00:07Is he home?
00:08That's what I want to know.
00:09I don't know where he is.
00:10I would love to know if he is in Finland or if he is down here.
00:14I'm assuming he's in Finland because I figured they want to bring it home to Finland.
00:19I mean, and they got like four guys from Finland on that team.
00:24My question is, is this the time of year where it doesn't get dark?
00:29In Finland?
00:30Yeah.
00:31I don't know.
00:32That whole area.
00:33I'm not sure, dude.
00:34I don't know.
00:35I'm sending JFig this picture that they just released because Barkoff has done something
00:39that according to the keeper of the cup has never been done before.
00:44And that is Barkoff, apparently like skateboarding, I don't know what the hell is going on here,
00:51but this is the first ever time Barkoff has had a professional skateboarder jump over
01:00the Stanley Cup.
01:02And I got to tell you, I'd be nervous.
01:04I was the keeper of the cup.
01:05What if he doesn't clear it?
01:08I'm more than sure.
01:09They've gotten a bunch of dents out of that thing over the years.
01:11Oh, I'm sure.
01:12But like, you know, he probably wants to keep the tour on track and doesn't want to have
01:15to send it back.
01:16Not that tall.
01:17What is?
01:19What is?
01:20Those guys jump over all kinds of crazy stuff.
01:22That's fair.
01:23That's fair.
01:24But do you think the keeper of the cup knows that?
01:26No.
01:27You didn't say a dude from on the corner that does it off the curb.
01:31Well, I'm assuming he's a professional.
01:33I don't mean maybe.
01:34Oh, and he's got a ramp.
01:35I thought he was just hopping up.
01:37Oh, no, no, no.
01:38You got to give him a ramp, dude.
01:39He got over it easily.
01:40Not that easily.
01:41It did add some height to it.
01:42The guy probably was easier than that.
01:43Barkov's like, he's got it, buddy.
01:44Don't worry.
01:45He's got it.
01:46That's Finland.
01:47That's Finland.
01:48Oh, yeah.
01:49That looks like Finn.
01:50That ain't here.
01:51By the way, Finland doesn't get dark during the summer months.
01:52You're right.
01:53That's what I thought.
01:54It's called the midnight sun.
01:55Wow.
01:56Thanks for looking at me like that.
01:57He has the white gloves.
01:58Nobody else has the white gloves.
01:59But I love it.
02:00Thank you for looking at me like I was an idiot.
02:01Tobin.
02:02Tobin.
02:03Tobin.
02:04Tobin.
02:05Tobin.
02:06Tobin.
02:07Tobin.
02:08Tobin.
02:09Tobin.
02:10Tobin.
02:11Tobin.
02:12Tobin.
02:13Tobin.
02:14No, we had this debate about Finland already.
02:15I believe you.
02:16No, it's not.
02:17It's not.
02:18It's Finland.
02:19What is it?
02:20Finland, Norway.
02:21Finland, Finland.
02:22And what's the other country?
02:25You're all connected up there.
02:26I don't know.
02:27Sweden.
02:28Is it Sweden?
02:29Whoever Ragnar Lothbrok took over.
02:30Finland, Norway, and Sweden.
02:31That's a Vikings reference, it has to be.
02:34Yes.
02:35Love that show.
02:36I'm watching Valhalla right now.
02:37Apparently, yeah.
02:38He is in Finland.
02:40Finland. No, that's some pure Finland. Apparently. Yeah, you can tell just by the bricks that
02:46ain't that ain't uh, he's got like a whole rally going on right now. This is kind of
02:51cool. The Panthers are tweeting out some photos right now. Can I just say this? Let's be clear.
02:57You can bring that Stanley Cup pretty much anywhere and you're going to get a crowd.
03:02Oh yeah. As soon as one person tells another person, Hey, where did you go? I have 200
03:12people. Yeah. This is cool. Good for Barkoff, man. Look at that. Marky Marky. Wow. But don't
03:22you love the fact that the keeper of the cup always has to have the white gloves on. He's
03:28not even in a suit. So wait, let me get this straight. The keeper of the cup has to wear
03:36white gloves, but socks are optional. Huh? Yeah, exactly. That seems nastier than not
03:42been touching the thing without gloves. Look at those calves though. Oh yeah. So what happens
03:47when you care? How much does it weigh? Are you sure he's not Targaryen? It's Damon. Hey,
03:57that's that area. I think I got some air dude. Yeah. It's like a famous Finland skater.
04:07Love to know. 34.5 pounds is how much it weighs. Not nothing famous, but they,
04:13they jacked it up on another skateboard. You want to impress me Barky. You jump over it.
04:19No, don't do that. No, I don't want him getting hurt. If he wants to do it, he can do it like on
04:27maybe roller skates or something. Dude, I don't want skateboard. Skateboard just seems like
04:30disaster. Yeah. I see that. I see that on YouTube and, uh, and, and Twitter and ID all the time.
04:38Right. Failed, uh, tricksters. Oh yeah. Remember we watched out a twin Peaks,
04:45Chieve TV. Oh yeah. Oh, was it Chieve? This whole time I thought it was Chive. It is.
04:52What? Marius Savanian. That is, uh, the name of the skateboard.
04:59How do you know? Jason Olive reported on NHL.com. Oh, he's good. He's good. He knows things. He
05:07knows things. Marius Savanian. And is he, so he is the most famous Finnish skateboarder.
05:15Uh, I'd say he's 34 years old, so he's no young whippersnapper necessarily.
05:21There's an article on them from 2015. So he's been around for quite some time.
05:27Uh, time has not been kind to this gentleman though. He does look a little bit like Pauly
05:32Shore. It's very strange. Yeah. Pauly Shore went from looking 12 to 75 quick. Yes. It looks like
05:39Ettu Lusteranian is at this event for Barkie too. Oh, that's kind of cool. Uh, Tampa. It's
05:46called Barkoff city today. I'm telling you, you bring the Stanley cup. Wow. They will come.
05:54I'll tell you what, if I brought the Stanley cup to my high school,
05:56we don't know what it is, but we celebrate. Yeah. So exciting. Would you eat out of it?
06:03I've also now seen a picture of Peter Worrell who's reading books to kids.
06:07Oh, on Jameson olives, Twitter account. And I'm just thinking to himself,
06:11then kids, I pulled the Jersey over the head and gave him some uppercuts.
06:17I mean, he had to take a knee to give uppercuts because he was tall.
