One of the cute photos show the baby sitting in the iconic championship trophy, his parents kissing him from either side, in a waterfront ceremony in Brainerd, Minnesota.

As one Twitter user commented, "Imagine living your entire life being able to say you got baptized in the Stanley Cup." 

Judging by the infant's face, though, he may have preferred the Lombardi.
