Puppy Bowl
Puppy Bowl is like watching a traffic camera trained on one corner for three hours. Puppies come. Puppies go. Puppies drink water from a see-through bowl with a "water cam" attached to its underside. This year, Puppy Bowl included a Puppy Tailgate party and a Kitty Halftime Show to spice things up, but mostly, it really is just puppies running around in front of a handful of still cameras for three hours. It's the most adorable film ever.
Some of the behind the scenes details are:
- Puppy Bowl is edited to prevent viewers from seeing any "inappropriate touching." There is no puppy ball-licking, puppy butt-sniffing or puppy humping in Puppy Bowl.
- You can adopt Puppy Bowl players after the game by contacting petfinder.com. The entire Puppy Bowl promotes puppy adoption and puppy population control.
- Puppies are chosen based on availability, breed and age. Youth counts here, folks. It's like American Idol for the puppy set... except Puppy Bowl competitors must have had their shots.
- There are no plans to costume the puppies. "That would be funny - but the puppies are so adorable we wouldn't want to cover them up!" Good point. No fear of "wardrobe malfunctions." Here is the intro of the show.

2/07/2007 10:35:00 PMMe, my husband and our two doggies have watched the Puppy Bowl every year that it's been on! Soooo adorable! My favorite is when the ref blows the whistle for "unnecessary roughness." Too cute! I didn't know that the puppies were up for adoption, though, in order to promote adoption and population control... that makes it even better!
