5 Reasons the Puppy Bowl is Better than the Super Bowl

yourdesignerdog — Wed, 01 Feb 2017 10:00:20 +0000

The big game is this weekend and most Americans are ready for some football. But in some households there may be a debate about which football players are better to watch. In my opinion the answer is simple – the puppies! The Puppy Bowl wins hands down over the Super Bowl at my house?

Here are my top five reasons why the Puppy Bowl is better than the Super Bowl:

Cuteness!!!

Who can watch five minutes of the Puppy Bowl without smiling or exclaiming Awwww? The Puppy Bowl players are a wide variety of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities that ensure all viewers find their ideal cuteness. No human football is guaranteed to provide so many smiles. In fact, many find the Super Bowl to be very stressful, worrying about who scores and whether the referees are being fair. Many even place bets and have to be concerned about losing money based on the game. But the Puppy Bowl with its frolicking puppies provides the perfect stress relief from all the tension associated with American football.

Your dog can watch and enjoy with you!

During the Super Bowl, your dog may sit on the couch or wander around your party hoping for snacks, but he or she couldn’t care less about the actual game. But with the Puppy Bowl, your dog can get exited when the action happens in the game because exciting moments in the Puppy Bowl usually involve barking and the squeaking of toys. Many dogs may also be bothered by the yelling at the TV and arguing with friends and family that sometimes occur when watching the Super Bowl. Your dog doesn’t have to worry about yelling or arguing with the Puppy Bowl on the screen.

Family friendly

Unlike the Super Bowl, the Puppy Bowl has no emphasis on alcohol or scantily clad women. The Puppy Bowl is a truly family friendly event. All ages can safely watch and enjoy the action of the Puppy Bowl. The Super Bowl is not always appropriate for younger family members, with constant alcohol consumption, potential wardrobe malfunctions, and commercials for little blue pills. And the Puppy Bowl doesn’t require you to stay up late to find out what happens. In fact you can have a nice family friendly party watching the Puppy Bowl with the kids and the dogs and then send them to bed so the adults can have their own Super Bowl party.

No rivalries

It doesn’t matter which team you support, everyone is a winner with the Puppy Bowl! You don’t have to worry about offending someone by rooting for the other team or worry about being made fun of for cheering for the underdog. In the Puppy Bowl, they’re all underdogs as all the puppies are rescue pups from animal shelters.

Cuteness!!!

Yes, my list begins and ends with cuteness because I can’t emphasize enough the immense levels of cuteness you find at the Puppy Bowl. Some people enjoy the eye candy of certain football players or cheerleaders during the Super Bowl, but you can’t say that it appeals to everyone. But with the Puppy Bowl, there is typically some cuteness everyone can enjoy. Adorable puppies, cute kittens at halftime, plus surprise appearances by birds, hamsters, bunnies, and more bring joy and smiles to everyone at home.

Football Bloopers

Sadie is getting ready for the Super Bowl this weekend by trying on a football player uniform. Last year Sadie was content to be on the sidelines as a Puppy Bowl Cheerleader, but this year she wanted the right outfit to get in on the action. Somehow this photo shoot to show off her new uniform did not go quite as planned. Sadie kept making the funniest faces and then before we got any “nice” pictures, the camera battery died. Maybe we can just tell everyone that Sadie was purposely making weird faces to try to intimidate her opponents.

Happy Puppy Bowl (and Super Bowl) Sunday!

Sadie is super excited for today’s big game! She’s got all her toy footballs ready to play along. But instead of a silly football jersey, Sadie will be playing with her doggie footballs wearing her official Puppy Bowl pink cheerleader uniform!

Once the big game is over, Sadie plans to curl up on the couch and take a nap while the humans watch that other football game. This way she’s nearby when her cheerleading services are needed or when they drop any tasty snacks. Go Patriots!
