scotzman 29 Report post Posted April 26, 2007 Some guy just came to my door here in Ohio (Columbus area) trying to sell me on TruGreen for my lawn... I opened the door and he said, "You buy today and I'll throw in a free squid," it took me a second, but then I started laughing as he pointed to my Wings Flag flying out front. Amazing how many people know about the tradition of the Red Wings! GO WINGS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

betterREDthandead 58 Report post Posted April 27, 2007 Shouldn't really come as a surprise that any hockey fan would know about the octopus. It's not some crummy little local thing like the Alberta beef whatever. It's one of the NHL's preeminent traditions and it gets brought up by ESPN and everyone else when the playoffs roll around. It's like being surprised that someone outside Boston knows about the Curse of the Bambino. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vladyfan 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2007 It is not all that long of a stretch. Until the Jackets came along, most Ohioans were Detroit fans... and of course, lots of us still are. Good story, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
