If you could possess the MLB trophy for a day, like the players can when their team wins the Stanley Cup:
what would you do with it?
where would you put it?
who would you show it to?

I'd put it on my kitchen table and I'd look at it while I was eating my Pop Tarts.

I'd have strawberries and cream starting with all the strawberries stuck on the pennants and pulling them off one by one.

I'd have someone take my picture with it. I'd take my kids' picture with it. I'd take pictures of every combination of family member with the film and digital cameras, to make sure that this was recorded for posterity.

I'd take it to the local pub and drink out of it.....fill that thing with whiskey .

There's not really a part of the trophy that can hold liquids so I think that might get a bit messy.

I would use it as a weenie roaster for vienna suasages.

A follow-up question: You're challenged to a duel to fight someone using the Stanley Cup and the World Series trophy as weapons. The Stanley Cup is heavier and would make a good bludgeon but the World Series trophy has those sharp, pointy parts. Which would you chose?

I'd make a hat out of it, put it on my head, and start fights with anyone who looked at me funny.

"What? What? You wanna start something, buddy? I've got the fucking World Series Championship Trophy on my goddamn head--now what does that say to you? That's right--back away, asshole. Boo-yah!"

It can probably be converted into a birdcage without too much difficulty.

I'd just walk around with it in the streets of some major city. And take it to bars.

Maybe I'd break off the Yankee pennant.

How are the pennants arranged on the trophy? Any method to the madness? Alphabetical? Year entered the league? Number of champeenships?

Strictly Alphabetical

Note, the trophy that is in my avatar, and the one pictured above is no longer in use, 1998 was the last year it was used, it was created in 1967

This is the current trophy
