Stade Francais turned their dressing room into a slip ‘n slide after winning the Top 14

This is how you celebrate a big win.

Stade Francais upset Clermont 12-6 in a dour enough Top 14 final in Paris on Saturday night, but the lackluster game didn’t stop the winners from enjoying their victory.

Rather than spray each other with champagne or drink a few beers, the Parisians sudsed up the dressing room floor and put the Bouclier de Brennus trophy to good use.

It really was a spectacular finish to what was already a successful season for Stade. Argentine coach Gonzalo Quesada guided his team to fourth in the league, which was good enough to qualify for the European Cup for the first time since 2010. But the last few weeks have been ridiculous, with comprehensive wins over Racing Metro and Toulon followed by Saturday’s win over Clermont, whose final woes continued for another year.
