When you think of American Football and Dolphins, you probably think of Miami but in this case you should be thinking of Nicholas - a dolphin at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium with a knack for predicting each year’s Super Bowl winner.
Nicholas has been on a six-year roll, accurately predicting each year the winner of the biggest game in football. His predictions have even gone so far as to pick winners that were statistically the underdogs going into the big game, such as the Philadelphia Eagles in 2018.
