D.C.'s Union Pub came up with a surefire way to get Washington Capitals fans through the door for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final.
For every goal scored by the Capitals on Monday night, the bar offered shots of alcohol for pennies based on the player's jersey number. For example, when Brett Connolly's deflection tied the game at 1-1 in the first period, shots were only 10 cents each.

The bar sold a total of 157 shots by the end of the night, according to David Fucillo of SB Nation. There's no word yet on whether they plan to run the special again for Game 2.
