This went down in Shanghai last week, at a shopping center that happened to have a decorative aquarium in the lobby.

I love me some animal welfare, but can't get too worked up by the Marlins having a tank filled with live fish embedded in the backstop of the new Marlins Park. For one, fish are dumb.

Armor-Clad Waterskiing Samurai Declares War On Stupid Fish

So, I learned this today: apparently there are fishing competitions where the winning fish is decided by most spots, not by weight. But, to qualify as an actual fish, and not a fish niblet, it has to meet the state minimum for length. In Florida, redfish have to be 18 inches....
