For non-football fans985 Archives Super Bowl weekend is just getting better and better.

Well, we all know that Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl is a very well established event which blesses non-football watchers (and football watchers too, let's be real) with incredibly adorable puppies. There's also the yearly tradition of looking at Superb Owls.

But now we have the opportunity to get our Super Bowl weekends started right with the Bunny Bowl.

That's right. It's football with bunnies. Can. Things. Get. Cuter?

The Bunny Bowl is being put on by Annie's Homegrown and can be watched live on their Facebook page. All bunnies are mixed breeds from Rabbit Ears Rescue, a rescue committed to saving rabbits from shelters that are about to be euthanized.

Christina Karem, spokesperson for Annie's, said that they were inspired by the Puppy Bowl. "We wanted to give our awesome fans an hour of bunnies…being bunnies," Karem elaborated.

We cannot think of anything more worth watching than bunnies being bunnies.

All told, the Bunny Bowl will feature 10 magnificent bunnies, each vying for the coveted title of the COAT (Cutest of All Time).

Team Longears and Team Lops will be competing in a slow-paced, fluffy version of football this Friday. While it is a competition, there doesn't seem to be any real way that a winner will be determined. We were told that a standardized scoring system had been attempted at first, but it was quickly abandoned due to the fact that the players didn't seem to carrot all.

Similar to the Puppy Bowl, all bunnies playing in the Bunny Bowl are available for adoption.

The Bunny Bowl will last an hour. Kick off is at 10 a.m. PST/ 1 p.m. EST this Friday.
