Let’s go Blues! Even a sea lion at the St. Louis Zoo is getting excited, video shows

The excitement of the Stanley Cup Finals can bring the hockey fan out of almost anyone.

Young and old alike have put their St. Louis Blues spirit on full display as the team battles with the Boston Bruins for the NHL title.

But sea life? It turns out they’re fans, too.

Louie, the beloved mascot for the Blues, has a new friend at the Saint Louis Zoo — a spirited sea lion named Dixi in the zoo’s Judy and Jerry Kent Family Sea Lion Sound.

Video shows Louie leading the 8-year-old critter in a cheer for the Blues ahead of Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

The Blues are currently tied with the Boston Bruins 1-1, with Game 3 scheduled for Saturday.
