Def Leppard's Joe Elliott is blaming the NHL for putting the Stanley Cup upside down.
"...Someone at the NHL should have known better and informed me first instead of keeping the Stanley Cup under lock and key until the last minute. The practice run the day before with a coffeemaker went swimmingly because it, like every other sporting cup I've ever seen, was wider at the top than the base. Ironic isn't it that after that night's gig, a NHL insider told me that long ago the Stanley Cup was also designed to be put down that way!!! Like most of my fellow Brits, I'd never seen it before until it was handed to me sideways by which time I had a 50/50 chance of getting it right. Whoops......"We'll give him a pass this time. The Brits aren't used to getting trophies. At least he didn't blame the "greasy Mexicans" this time.
