Ollie the Octopus is more than just your average eight-legged cephalopod; he's a true local legend in Gisborne. Whether it's laying bricks, fighting fires, or lending a hand with the occasional odd job as a 'Hire a Hubby,' Ollie is known for always showing up for his community. His tireless efforts and charming presence make him a cult hero among the residents of Gisborne.

But while Ollie's contributions are well-known, it's time to commemorate his spirit in a way that makes his legacy immortal. We propose the creation of an Ollie the Octopus Hall of Fame and the erection of a statue in the Main Street of Gisborne. This would not only honor Ollie's incredible contributions and acts of service but also inspire others in the community to follow in his many arms' worth of footsteps.

Creating a permanent space dedicated to Ollie's memory will also promote tourism and foster community pride in Gisborne. Picture visitors standing in awe of Ollie's statue, reading about his courageous adventures and contributions—an idea that can only bring positivity and recognition to our beloved town.

To the decision-makers and town planners of Gisborne, we urge you to take action. Join us in celebrating Ollie's impact and ensuring his legacy is preserved for future generations. Sign this petition to support the establishment of an Ollie the Octopus Hall of Fame and the installation of a statue on Gisborne's Main Street. Together, let's make Ollie great again!
