An annual Super Bowl tradition took place Wednesday at the Maritime Aquarium.
Mikey, an almost 2-year-old grey seal, made his rookie Super Bowl prediction.
Staff threw two footballs into the water and Mikey retrieved the Patriots branded one - picking them to win.
"Seals can see mainly blues, red, and greens. Those are their big ones and a little bit of grey, so it's a different spectrum. The Seahawks did have a little bit of green on it. So, I think it just it was a little bit of color difference. Or he may have just been cheering for the team that's known for this area," says trainer Alexis Brauner.
Brauner says Mikey has been working on his retrieval skills since mid-November.
