They join the Danbury Westerners, Glover Teixeira, and Alex Pereira who've all been crowned champions in the past 18 months, and winning it all culminates in a celebration. For the Hat Tricks, that party took place on Sunday (5/21/23) in the streets of the Hat City.

The Rabbits, their coaches and team personnel snaked their way through the city beginning at City Hall and ending at the Danbury green. The team took to the stage of the bandshell and delivered speeches to their fans from the podium. These are some of the highlights of the day.

Inside the Premier Party for the Danbury Trashers Netflix Documentary

My name is Lou Milano, I am the co-host of the Ethan and Lou Morning Show on I-95. Recently, I attended the local premier of the Netflix film "Untold: Crime & Penalties" about the Danbury Trashers. The Trashers were a United Hockey League team that were around for a short time in the 2000' s in Western, CT but the team and ownership left a lasting impact.

The premier was open to the public and would take place inside the building where the Trashers played hockey, the Danbury Ice Arena. I decided to watch the movie at my house before going to the event. I wanted to use the time at the arena to interview the people in the film, and give an inside look into the night. This was my night out, with the cast of the film and the Trashers.
