NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 dude...we've been asking the same of you guys for YEARS. I'd rather stick a dead Shark down my pants than an octopus any day. If we're going that route, I'd rather not stick any sea creature down my pants. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WingNutt 12 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 I'm sure you all saw it. After Cheechoo's goal, someone tossed a dead shark onto the ice in the shark tank. What were your reactions? It seemed a little silly/ironic to toss a dead symbol of your team on the ice...dont ya' think? I guess they dont know the history behind the octopus. Seeing how the game turned out, i doubt we will see that one again. If anyone has any pics - post them, i'd like to see a close up of that thing. here ya go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OsGOD 3 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 Did anyone actually see the person who lofted that sucker onto the ice? Perhaps they were sporting a winged wheel and that dead shark was actually meant to symbolize the impending outcome of the game. I dunno, maybe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WingNutt 12 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 I say we take it as a compliment, All these teams are copying our tradition now and trying to make their own. I don't hold anything against them for it but, The whole Catfish thing is just dumb. Octopi and Sharks are way more badass than catfish. BTW did any of you San Jose fans see anyone throw any catfish during the Nashville series? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 The only good shark is a dead shark. I think we all need to lighten up a little about every little thing. I think it's a tribute to our tradition that other teams copy it in some way. Imitation, flattery, that whole thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roz 2 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 Another thing. That looks about the size of the sharks that the octopus in that video was eating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 Another thing. That looks about the size of the sharks that the octopus in that video was eating. Yeah but that octopus looked about 10 bajillion times bigger than the octopi we throw out on the ice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jwo 7 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 I think the meaning of it was that the sharks will be dead at the end of game 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleight 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 In reality they probably had no intentions of ripping off the Wings' tradition, but rather mock the tradition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JaketheShark 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 I don't think it was the dead shark that some fan threw on the ice that was bad luck for the Sharks. I think it was all the dead Sharks that Ron Wilson threw on the ice towards the end of the second period and at the end of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oilandwingsfan 3 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 haha just like with Oiler fans throwing out Alberta beef onto the ice... i don't know why but it works better with Edmontonians not Calgarians Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arin 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 I really dont think throwing a SHARK on the ice during a SHARKS game is 'copying' us... Come on. Who really cares? Also, who cares if it's dead? Are all the octopi put onto the ice at the Joe still alive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
