No need for slow-mo: California theme park hosts 'First Ever Sloth Bowl'

VALLEJO, Calif., Feb. 9 (UPI) -- A California theme park offered a cuter alternative to the Super Bowl in the form of the first-ever "Sloth Bowl."

Six Flags Discovery Kingdom shared video on YouTube of the "Sloth Bowl," a sporting event involving the park's 7-year-old two-toed sloth, Chewy, playing with a Super Bowl 50 commemorative football.

The sloth's version of football involves some slight contact with the ball, but mostly seeking out treats and mugging for the camera.

"You've heard of #SuperBowl50 and #PuppyBowl, now there's The Sloth Bowl, starring Chewy, a seven-year-old adorable female two-toed sloth. She's got GAME!" the park said in the video's description.
