Saints Latest Sports Venture For Fif
However, the Saints are just the latest sports team to partner with Sire Spirits. The brand already has an agreement with the NHL's Vegas Golden Knights, as well as several NBA teams. Furthermore, Fif has a special place in the hearts of Vegas fans. The rapper was chosen to sound the T-Mobile Arena siren ahead of Game 5 of the Stanley Cup earlier this year.
The siren appeared to work its magic as the Golden Knights decimated the Panthers 9-3. After two periods, the Golden Knights led 6-1. The game became tied for the third-highest margin of victory in a Stanley Cup Finals game. There have been six other instances of a 6-goal margin in the Stanley Cup Finals. Many hailed 50 as the team's good luck charm, attributing his siren ring as helping cause the rout. The win sealed the Cup for Vegas, marking the franchise's first title. Furthermore, it was the second major championship for the city of Las Vegas, following on from the Las Vegas Aces' WNBA title in 2022. The Aces repeated as WNBA champions earlier this month.
