Hate sports and lame commercials but love animals? Fear not. There is one adorable event taking place on Super Bowl Sunday: Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl VI.
Playful pups will enter the octagon and run circles round one another to see who will win in the game of, um, rambunctiousness.
Forty-three puppies will enter a small turf field, which is equipped with water bowls and cameras to catch all the action. The puppies will also race around, playing with toy footballs.
The two-hour spectacle, which kicks off at 3 p.m. on Animal Planet, will feature an all-kitten halftime show.
While there will be no winners or loser, referees will monitor the "players" and penalize and remove overzealous pups from the field that display extreme "ruffness."
Last year, Puppy Bowl V drew 1.2 million viewers, according to Cleveland.com. This year's Puppy Bowl was recorded over two days, and the program will air five times in a row following the 3 p.m. broadcast, the Web site added.
Here's YouTube video from the 2009 Puppy Bowl:
