Breaking News - Fort Worth Zoo Reptile Predicts Super Bowl Winner


The Travelling Toe is normally not interested in sports and sporting events but found an interesting local news story to share about predicting  the winner of the 2015 Super Bowl in Arizona.  

The Fort Worth Zoo announced Friday, January 30th that the 1,500 pound saltwater croc, know as Salty,  predicted the Super Bowl winner for 2015. Two frozen chickens were hung from a rope for Salty to choose from.   One chicken was decorated with the Seattle Seahawks colors and the other chicken in the colors of the New England Patriots.  

When Salty decided that it was snack time, he rose up out of the water and grabbed the Seahawks chicken first.  OK, later on he did return and took out the Patriots chicken as well.  Could the Pat's chicken have been deflated a tad just hanging out there?   Just asking!

The Fort Worth Zoo says that their zoo animals have correctly chosen 5 out of the last 6 winners of the Super Bowl.   Sounds like good odds to the Travelling Toe.   Vegas Baby!!!!

We will find out for sure on Sunday if Salty picked the winner of the 2015 Super Bowl.  He might be eating crow on Monday.
