As many people know, stuffies are one of my favorite parts of figure skating and something that is as far as I know unique to figure skating. I vaguely remember flowers, particularly roses, being thrown when I was very young, but it seems to have somehow migrated mostly to stuffed animals, i'm guessing for safety reasons. What does everyone here know about this unique tradition - for example, does anyone know what the first stuffie ever thrown was? (I don't and am dying to know).
