Gorilla Picks Saints to Win Super Bowl
By Larry Brown February 6, 2010 - Posted in Linkage
The meerkats at the Fort Worth zoo got it wrong picking the Cardinals to beat the Steelers. This year, it was Amani, the 37-year-old gorilla who got to make the selection. Faced with two papier-mache footballs, she made the choice:
At least New Orleans has someone on their side — seems like most analysts have been picking the Colts — for good reasons. Now if you’re wondering whether or not the gorilla’s picks will be prescient, one of the zoo’s elephants made picks from ’98-’07 and was successful 60% of the time. Your probably better off going with my picks at a higher percentage, but I’m actually with the gorilla on this one — Saints plus the points, Colts outright.
