Matt 1,049 Report post Posted April 28, 2008 http://www.thisplaceisazoo.com/products/octopus.html Who wants to get one of those big ones to toss over the glass? No "matter" to come out of that -- well, unless Al gets really excited. I was looking for something a bit more realistic and less "cute, stuffed animal" --- but I guess there's not a big market for fake rubber octopi out there. Who would've thunk it?

stud_defenseman 1 Report post Posted April 28, 2008 a little too pricy at $42.50 a pop... a big slimy real octopus would certainly have a better effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vol865 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2008 http://www.mcphee.com/items/M5946.html Glow Squeak Octopus Most octopi are shy and try to camouflage themselves by changing their color to match their surroundings, but not these showoffs! They glow brightly in the dark and if you give them a squeeze they'll respond with a loud squeak, as if to say, "Look at me! I'm proud to be a mollusk!" You get two 11" rubber octopi.

VladyIBELIEVE16 257 Report post Posted April 29, 2008 I much prefer an animal/species that I don't have to kill. Here's Al - my gold AL that I got in 2002 after we won the cup.
