Figure Skaters’ Stuffed Animals

At the end of each competitive performance, assuming they don’t implode, figure skaters generally have lots of stuffed animals thrown out onto the ice by their adoring fans. But what happens to all of these stuffed animals then? They probably end up in some storage space, neglected, dusty, forgotten. So maybe Sarah McLachlan should make an ad for PETSA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Stuffed Animals) asking people to help these poor neglected stuffed animals, with lots of loving close-ups of dusty stuffed animals.

(I hope the skaters donate them to some charity that gives them out to needy children, but I have to admit I have no idea what happens to them.)
