Ill go a step further, and ask why does anyone like sportsball of any kind, then have so much free time and money to watch a game while hauling dead fish to it.  I'll never get it.

All I know is playoff hockey is so awesome fans sneak in dead fish to throw on the ice.

That's a Nashville thing. I don't remember the origin. Florida throws rats. That one started back in 97 during their first Stanley cup run.

I went to a Seattle Thunderbirds game when I was a kid.

Dude brought in a salmon, but it must have been rotten or some shit, because when he tossed it on the ice the damn thing exploded!

Because they are retarded, that is why.

It’s a sad attempt to copy Detroit’s octopus.

Carolina’s “storm surge” celebration blows too.

FL throws rats because their first arena was so bad there were rats in the locker rooms. Scott Mellanby killed one with his hockey stick and a legend (copying Detroit) was born.

I’m strangely okay with the Florida rat tradition. The catfish trend is just too “try hard” for me. It wasn’t organic.

It was customary to throw a Steelhead on the ice when the Idaho Steelheads won a game.


Dunno if they still do it though

Hockey is actually played with an item called a puck. It’s rather disc-shaped like an Oreo. It’s not a ball at all.

The octopus is a significant symbol in Detroit Red Wings hockey games, particularly during home playoff games. The tradition of throwing octopuses onto the ice dates back to 1952, when two brothers, Pete and Jerry Cusimano, who owned a fish market, decided to throw an octopus onto the ice at Olympia Stadium. The significance of the octopus lies in its eight tentacles, which symbolize the eight playoff wins necessary for the Red Wings to win the Stanley Cup during that era.

The tradition has continued over the years, with fans throwing octopuses onto the ice to celebrate the team’s success and to bring good luck. The octopus has become a beloved symbol of the Red Wings and their fans, and its presence on the ice is often seen as a sign of good fortune and a harbinger of victory.

It was a NHL game that wins the prize for most boring fucking game of any kind, I have ever seen.

3 hours with one goal

It’s still a hockey game. It gets chilly in the lower bowl.

People in CAR wear heavier coats to games all of the time, and they walk right through without any harassment.

In Alaska it was tradition to toss humpy's or pink salmon onto the ice.  The good salmon, reds, silvers and kings you keep to eat.

Now my Detroit Red Wings people.. we threw octopuses on the ice because it used to be 8 wins to win the Stanley Cup.

8 legs = 8 wins

I thought it was just meat in general that was tossed.

On that note, a double header was slung out onto the ice at
one of our college games. c.1980

They're copying Detroit.  New Jersey, Nashville, Edmonton, San Jose, and Phoenix have all bit this tradition and tried to emulate it.  

EDIT:  I actually like Little Caesars pizza and everything but I'm still salty they decided against calling it the Faygo Dome after demolishing Joe Louis Arena.  I'm surprised it was even allowed to happen at all, to be honest.
