February 5th marks Superbowl XLVI, where everyone across America will be tuning in to watch the game or will be waiting for the commercials. However, there’s one event which has grown to become an American tradition – the Puppy Bowl.

It’s hard to believe we’re going into our 8th annual Puppy Bowl, as the popularity of the event continues to grow. It’s no longer about the puppies, as last year’s event introduced hamsters and chickens. Proven by the video below. Just like the Superbowl, the spectacle looks to be getting bigger than the event.

This year’s Puppy Bowl will probably introduce all sorts of crazy stunts, but in the end it’s really about the puppies. Animal Planet has revealed the line-up for Puppy Bowl VIII. Here’s a few of the players for your viewing pleasure. You’re welcome.
