Famous Friend

Take a picture of your octopus with a famous person. The more famous, the better.

Cooperation

Multiple octopodes cooperate together to accomplish something no single octopus could do alone!

From Wikipedia: A minyan מנין (Hebrew: plural minyanim) in Judaism is a quorum of ten or more adult Jews assembled for purposes of fulfilling a public religious obligation requiring a quorum. In contemporary Judaism, the most common activity involved is public prayer.

Cooperation

Multiple octopodes cooperate together to accomplish something no single octopus could do alone!

You can't cure disease with only one person! Pandemic is a 2-4 player cooperative game. Additonally, each of the four players slots are occupied by two octopodes helping one another - 3 sidekicks who are just learning how to play, and Tako graciously sharing his turn with a buddy.

Also, they note that there are a total of eight octopodes in this picture.

Stack

The tallest stack of octopodes

From top to bottom: superlass (sidekick), dangergirl (sidekick), kick (sidekick), Tako Yaki, Octavia, Captain Cephalopod, Crazy Eight, Oct, and Cephegerae.

The line of trim is about 6' high, for reference, so this stack is both tall and contains many octopodes.
