In Detroit it’s become a tradition for fans to toss an octopus onto the ice during playoff games. It started when the Stanley Cup playoffs were two rounds, meaning that it took eight playoff victories to win the championship. The “octopus twirl” is where the player who picks it up from the ice twirls it over his head a few times.

It looks like an innocent enough tradition. People sure do get twisted in a knot easily today.

I think I see a market opening up for realistic looking plastic octopus. Better get them out there now and pile them high and watch them fly!
Americans will buy anything.
