CHICAGO — The Blackhawks might have won the Stanley Cup, but Archbishop Blase J. Cupich still plans to send deep dish pizza to Florida.

Cupich is sending the pizza as part of a bet with Bishop Robert N. Lynch of Florida. The deal was that if the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup, Lynch would send grapefruit to St. Leo Campus for Veterans in Auburn Gresham; if the Blackhawks lost, Cupich would send deep dish pizza to Pinellas Hope, a shelter for homeless people in Clearwater, Fla.

The Blackhawks won on Monday, but Cupich plans to send Lou Malnati's to the 300 people at Pinellas anyway. Lou's also plans to give pizza to St. Leo.
