Denver Broncos Defeat Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl Pet Names Competition

With this year's Big Game featuring the number one-ranked offense versus the number one-ranked defense, even the prognosticators are having trouble predicting a winner. Fortunately, we have team-inspired pet names to help us determine which team will be victorious on Super Bowl Sunday. Veterinary Pet Insurance Co. (VPI), the nation's first and largest provider of pet health insurance, analyzed its database of more than 500,000 insured pets to determine which squad has the best chance to come out victorious based on pet name popularity. The Broncos win by a whisker - check out the chart for complete results.

Among the notable pet monikers in VPI's database that were most likely inspired by Broncos and Seahawks players, past and present, are 15 pooches named "Elway," likely named after the Broncos legendary quarterback and one "Largent," a Shar-Pei from Kirkland, Wash., likely named after the Seahawks Hall of Fame wide receiver.
