Look Upon Its Ghastly Visage And Tremble

It used to be so simple. Eat a shit-ton of chicken wings, drink your weight in beer, and watch a mess of football interspersed with vulgarly expensive, frequently irritating commercials. Oh, and a truly wretched halftime show was thrown in this year. But now, temptation leads this nation astray. It taunts us, forcing us to distract ourselves from this holiest of sports days. I speak, of course, of the Puppy Bowl.

Puppy Bowl is pure evil, people. It’s a malevolent force put on this earth to destroy our hearts and minds, a whirling dervish of destruction and woe. Also? Fucking adorable.

And so, because we can, here are some post-game videos from the damn thing. It aims to steal viewers away from the greatest American sports moment of the year. And it does so adorably… and without mercy.

The Pre-Game Show:

The Kitty Half-Time Show:

Final Moments:

And of course, The MVP:

Gaze upon the precocious, ridiculously cute faces of despair.

I'll bet Kitten Half-Time was TK's favorite.

I could stare at those cute little wankers all day. In fact I think I will.

Those puppies near killed me. I wanted to adopt both of the Shih Tzus, Two Face, and the black and white one with the fuzzy face. You know, the one that was super cute.

When Evil comes, it comes bearing the Cute Face. Tremble in fear.

I used to dread Super Bowl Sunday. It was a choice between going to some awful party with bad food and "football" or staying home and watching the dreck that other networks think those of us who don't like "football" will watch. Seriously, people. What is the obsession with wedding-related shows on TV?
Then seven years ago Puppy Bowl happened. Oh the joy! Now I curl up on the sofa and revel in puppytude. I am a happy woman.

I want to take that second one home with me. I'd hug him and kiss him and loooove him and pet him and call him George.

i had thought "puppy bowl" was some sort of anti super bowl pajiba joke that I missed the genesis of.

*shakes head*

Puppy touchdoooown! If this is evil, sign me up.

Those Shih Tzus look suspiciously like my ewok brethren. Maybe we're related!

Also, no love for the kiss cam videos?! Some of those almost gave me diabetes.

I watch Puppy Bowl every year without fail and I have no regrets. The strangest part of the event this year, however, was that it was the top trending tweet for hours. The hell?! Oh, America. Every once in a great while you DO have some taste!

I liked Duncan, the bulldog-golden retriever mix who didn't look much like either.

Why can't I have all puppies?

Posted by: Jerry at February 7, 2011 2:21 PM

Ooooh! I really want the third one, top row. His (her?) little flop-over triangle ears really get me. Puppy Bowl 4eva!!

Is it just me or I feel meh ambivalent about the whole thing. Sure, sure, they're cuddly and cute and oh so nauseatingly adorable but what's the purpose of seeing animals run around confused and probably frightened by all the lights and moving automatons and sounds. It's like seeing my former neighbor smoke pot then subsequently pee on my mother's hydrangea bushes. It's interesting and slightly funny but ultimately annoying in the end.

Tallulahc: Here's the purpose ... these puppies/cats/hamsters/chickens didn't have homes before the broadcast, and now they are all most likely adopted. It warms the cockles of my heart to think about all of the happy endings that these animals will get as a result of being on this show.

Can't comment. Too eaten up with SQUEEEEE!!!!!

I just love puppies so much. It makes me so unironically happy to see a puppy post on Pajiba.
