Courtesy of the CP

World renowned architect Frank Gehry designed the new World Cup of Hockey Championship trophy, and unveiled it this week. (CP PHOTO/Adrian Wyld). Gehry told the stunned audience:
"The light catches the trophy the same way it catches ice,"

"Ice was the metaphor here. It looks like ice."

Get rid of the silver cup in the middle and add a handle to it and you got yourself a pretty decent beer mug.

What the hell is that thing? I don't know what's more disturbing. That someone made it, or that someone got paid to make it.
