The 2019 Stanley Cup Final took place on June 12th, 2019 with the St-Louis Blues beating the Boston Bruins 4-1. For St-Louis it was the first Stanley Cup win in the team’s 51 year history, so it’s not surprising that Pornhub traffic plummeted as fans were busy watching the live game.
At the beginning of the game, the traffic drop was actually greater in Boston by -19% compared to -14% in St-Louis. But as the Blues racked up scores, it seems like many Boston viewers tuned out and headed back to watch Pornhub instead.
St. Louis traffic then dropped by a massive -23% in the last hour of the game as fans tuned in to see their team finally win the Stanley Cup. After the game, traffic quickly returned to normal levels in Boston, while St-Louis remained below average for a few hours as fans were busy celebrating their team’s win.
