A raw dead thrown octopus would result in a smelly...
There is a certain etiquette that must be followed for fans that wish to throw octopuses onto the ice.

Soviets vs. Dimetrodons
From Topps’ 1998 trading card deck “Dinosaurs Attack.”
“A nation watched in horror as the President, while boarding his helicopter and shouting to reporters on the White House lawn, was savagely slain by a trio of hungry Pteranodons. The First Lady and two Secret Service men were also eaten alive as hundreds of concerned citizens watched on live TV.”

…the giant sea-worm!
Rare tropical fish were disappearing from a live-coral aquarium in Cornwall, UK. Half-assed British marine biologists were baffled and went so far as to saw up some of the coral to identify any predators. Halfway through the process the predator was revealed as a four-foot polychaete worm. Staff eventually lured it out with fish scraps, but not before it bit through...
