Watch: The Patriots Are Going to Win the Super Bowl

Check out which team is predicted to win Super Bowl 49 by Masai giraffe Artimis, the Los Angeles Zoo’s resident football expert.

In the exclusive video, filmed before cheering crowds* at the Zoo, Artimus’ keeper packs two containers full of his favorite Super Bowl snacks, one with the Seattle Seahawks logo and the other with the New England Patriots logo. While the suspense builds, Artemis makes his choice.

The prediction concludes with an, er, tall tale, including the fact that the *cheering crowds are inaudible and invisible. And keep in mind that Artimus is not responsible for your use of or belief in his prediction. He’s never played football, does not have a TV and he’s a giraffe. However, visitors to the Los Angeles Zooand Botanical Gardens can see Artie and his teammate giraffes – including Artie’s new giraffe calf, named Leo and born on November 20, at the Los Angeles Zooand Botanical Gardens, which is open every day of the year from 10 am to 5 pm, except Christmas Day. The calf, by the way, currently stands at a kicker-size 6-feet-tall, 150 pounds.
