It was one of many but we decided to freeze multiple jerseys that Gunnar wore to games as part of our good luck jersey. He might be gone but his sweat will still carry us through.

The Grizzlies froze a bunch of salmon under the ice. It wasn't really about good luck, though. We just had too much salmon and needed to store it somewhere safe. I think we actually forgot about it. It should still be good to eat, though.

The New Orleans Specters decided to freeze some lucky mardi gras beads in the ice. The team was not able to successfully get past Texas in the first round, but now they know that the beads are getting luckier having taken a few wins of a strong Texas team.
We froze a physical 3D version of our logo onto the ice to start the year instead of painting it on like losers, and it's held up perfectly with no fans even considering such a thing, and its held up its end of the bargain with NL once again soaring through the ploofs.

The Specters good luck charm? It's the frozen body of GM Joe Kortesi, obviously. How else could we preserve his trading and negotiating skills for future GMs? It's like a whole Walt Disney thing.
