Right after the first goal from Ryan Gagnier in the second period, attendees threw thousands of stuffed animals onto the rink.

Indy Fuel says they received a total of 6,852 stuffed animals, which is the most in the Teddy Bear Toss’ history. The toys will be donated to several different charities.

Since the very first Teddy Bear Toss, the two organizations have now donated nearly 50,000 stuffed animals to children in the Indianapolis area.
