Ape that has picked six straight Super Bowl winners chooses Seahawks
Picking Super Bowl winners isn't easy, unless you're an ape.
Eli, an ape from a Utah zoo, has picked six straight Super Bowl winners and made his much-anticipated selection for Super Bowl XLVIII on Thursday morning.
Eli ran into an enclosure and swatted down a papier-mache helmet with the Seahawks logo to indicate his selection.
"He's better than the Vegas oddsmakers," Eli's handler Erica Hansen said via ESPN.
Eli correctly picked the Baltimore Ravens to upset the San Francisco 49ers last season.
