Watching animals make their pick for who they think will win Super Bowl XLIX might seem like a waste of time–and that’s because it is. We make no attempt to tell you otherwise.
But that doesn’t mean it’s boring. As was the case last year, sometimes watching these videos is more exciting than the actual game. That’s why devoted our resources (interns) to scouring YouTube for every video we could find of various animals (zoo animals, pets, etc.) making their Super Bowl predictions.
Here’s what we learned:
• 9/13 animals picked the Seahawks
• Of the big animals (bears, bulls, elephants, big cats) 3 chose the Patriots and 3 chose the Seahawks
• The kids with the guinea pigs really don’t know much about football
