Why do we sometimes see selling first thing in the morning below GTC bids?

Forgive me if this is a naive question, but why does this happen? Sales sneak in during the first minute of trading before the GTCs have a chance to "show up". It seems unlikely that someone would put in a sell order below the previous day's closing bid and in all probability below what the bid will be one minute after the open. I would blame it on chart-painting, but the amounts, while small, seem a bit too big for that.
