Hinsdale Independence Day parade-goers got a special treat Thursday morning.

Chicago Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville was the parade's grand marshall and he brought the Stanley Cup with him. 

Quenneville, whose Hawks won their second Cup title in the last four years last month, road atop a Hinsdale Fire Department truck and elicited roars from the crowd every time he picked up the world's most famous trophy and held it high over his head.
