The Simpsons predict Super Bowl outcome

As with literally anything that has ever or will ever happen, The Simpsons did it first. While these revelations usually come from eagle-eyed super fans of the show, the proof of The Simpsons predicting this Sunday's contest actually came from the cartoon's official Twitter account.

In 2005's "Bonfire Of The Manatees," Denver was shown to have won the Super Bowl with a final score of 19-14. It should also be noted that Homer is the owner of the Denver Broncos, as per 1996's "You Only Move Twice" episode.

Of course, if the Peyton Manning-led offense is held to 19 points everyone on Earth is in for a surprise. Also, I hope the long-running cartoon is incorrect via my residual hatred of Peyton's AFC South-dominating Colts and my unbridled love for one Richard Sherman.

The Super Bowl XLVIII is at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey this year. You can watch it on FOX starting at 6:30pm EST.
