It’s that time of year again, and Animal Planet is running Puppy Bowl before, during, and after the game. There’s nothing like twelve hours of puppies and kittens romping around, tackling each other, and drinking water, to beat out the Super Bowl for viewers.

And yet, even though this event is up against one of the largest beer-guzzling events of the year, we were amazed to find zero indications of a Puppy Bowl Drinking Game.

So, we’ve started our own. Please feel free to help us revise it in the forum.

Puppy Bowl Drinking Game

Drink once…

• Any time the referee comes out onto the field. (Take a second drink if it’s for a cleanup issue.)
• Any time Harry Kalas (the announcer) mentions “Puppy Bowl”
• Any time they break for commercial
• Any time they go to a shot of Bowl Cam
• Any time they run an instant replay

Drink twice…

• Any time Harry Kalas makes a statement about the excitement level on the field and they immediately pan to a dog that’s laying down doing nothing.
• Any time a dog falls off a lawn chair during a tailgate party shot
• Any time a single dog sprawls across the field logo and is the only dog in the shot.
• For the Drive of the Hour

Next Saturday: back to Lila’s hair, I promise. This was just too timely to ignore.

We got in yesterday afternoon around 3 and spent most of the evening doing laundry, watching the Phillies win, and watching the Eagles… do whatever they did, I wasn’t paying attention, the Phillies were on.

Today is food shopping, and then time to go pick up mini-mutt.

If you hurry, you can still catch the original article here. Kudos to Nighthawk for pointing it out.

Of course, it helps to know that Jimmy Johnson is the defensive co-ordinator for the Eagles, and that sometime around May 24th, 2005 (the day we took the screenshot), the Eagles extended his contract…. but that kind of takes the “get your mind out of the gutter” fun out of it.

For those who don’t follow either American or Canadian football, Wikipedia explains the rouge at the bottom of the Scoring section.

…and it’s not exactly the most exciting strip I’ve done, but this marks Comic #100 in the archive.
