Fan throws catfish onto ice during Bruins/Predators game

Never change, Nashville.

While each NHL franchise and its collective fanbase have their own unique set of customs and traditions, the Predators have opted for a rather nautical (and pungent) pastime.

Taking a page out of the Red Wings’ old propensity to drop Octopi onto the frozen sheet at Joe Louis Arena, Nashville fans have routinely chucked catfish over the boards for years now.

Sometimes, it’s just a simple heave onto the ice. Other times, brave individuals like Titans offensive lineman Taylor Lewan chug a beer out of the fish in front of a raucous crowd.
