I love a good hockey tradition. Florida fans with their rats. Detroit fans with their octopi. All fans with their hats. And now Nashville fans with their catfish. When these little gimmicks, silly as they can sometimes be, come into the limelight, I’m always curious to find out where they originated. Some have good stories behind them (the Florida Rat Trick is easily my favorite), and some don’t. Here’s the best explanation I could find on why Nashville fans throw catfish, and… well… I’m going to go out on a limb and say that this tradition doesn’t have all that great of a story behind it.
Wilderness Walk: TRADITION!
