You expect things to be thrown at hockey games - usually punches. Not eight thousand teddy bears, all thrown onto the ice in the middle of the first period at a Ontario Hockey League game. The bears - eight thousand two hundred thirty-two to be exact - were being chucked at the players after the first goal was scored as part of a tradition.
