Pigs Don't Fly, But Everything Else Does

If you're not a fan of hockey (which would put you in the majority) then you probably aren't aware of the "flying octopus" tradition practiced by the Detroit Redwings before the Stanley cup playoffs (which is now). I won't bore you with the slimy details, but I will give you a link to the video that shows Redwing fans slinging a dead octopus around a hockey arena. (Can I just saw "ew" and, um, "hella no!")

While I draw the line at flying octopi and winged Victoria Secret models [I do have standards], I am open to flying seahorses, cats, hearts, skulls, etc. -- but only in the form of something shiny that I can hang around my neck or pin to my shirt. (These winged accessories are popping up everywhere, and they're really cute in a fantastically creepy way.)
