ST. LOUIS (KMOX) — He may have gained fame in Hollywood, but St. Louis native Jon Hamm returned to his roots to sweat it out with Blues fans last night at Enterprise Center.

May 8, 2019 "This is what makes hockey amazing," Hamm said to reporters after the game.
Hamm described the moment the Blues won it as "so many high fives."

May 8, 2019 "This is why I've loved hockey since I was a little kid, and why I've loved St. Louis Blues hockey since I was a little kid. It's phenomenally exciting!"

May 8, 2019 Like the rest of us that watched the game or listened on KMOX, he was nervous, too.
"We dominated (the Stars) for three periods and we still could have lost. And that sucks...except it didn't," Hamm said with a grin.

May 8, 2019 Hamm was asked if he'd "dare to dream" about a Stanley Cup championship. He says "of course."
Jon Hamm is no frontrunner. He bleeds St Louis Blues hockey! @StLouisBlues https://t.co/9fMbnADopo
