I am really going to miss this place. I'm a Caps fan, but this was the arena where I saw my first ever hockey game (no prizes for guessing which two teams were playing then). It will always have a special place in my heart as a hockey fan.
In the depths of the Atlantic, families of octopus tell each other horrible tales of the decades long genocide of their kindred at the Joe Louis Arena.
the octopus has its place in the playoffs only, not during a regular season game, even if its the last one at Joe Louis. Come on, save a playoff tradition for the playoffs

Sad great history but those boards are stupidly bouncing
So much history in that building. Too bad it didn't end in the playoffs.
Rip Joe
What I would love to see at the Joe was 1 game between the AVS Alumni vs Wings Alumni…that would have been so cool.
kinda wish the red wings played well enough to make the playoffs, would've been special since it's their last time at the Joe
Gotta love the Joe

Good ol octo at the joe
one of the main reason why hockey is better than soccer 😀
Can I ask why Joe Louis Arena is like closing or why aren't they gonna play in it no more?
In the new arena, it's gotta be a hot n ready $5 pizza.

Hope the Wings can find a new team in next season, its a shame the last season in the Joe ended a huge playoff streak. -B's fan.

I was in the washroom for 5 damn minutes at the Joe, and everyone starts SCREAMING!!! I missed it by 5 minutes 😣
I can't believe the city of Detroit still has a hockey team. Its an absolute dump there.
I always wondered if the security people just look past people coming in with an octopus or if they have to somehow smuggle it in?
The last game people should throw ice all over the joe
I know this place has so much history. But I won't miss seeing the top of people's heads because the camera angle there is garbage
" joe Louis arena is not an ice rink, its a boxing arena." Every old timer ever who's been there
Red Wings Tradition, score a goal, octopus are thrown in the ice.
This needs to be done every game the rest of the season.

MIss the old Joe
Absolutely worthless death. I already hate this and loath that something like that happens.
Just like many other things to animals.
What an Idiot
rot in hell
