I'm boycotting this for you excluding Archimedes, the owl from Sword in the Stone!

What do you mean I wasn't included??

Who who? What what?

I never saw this until a few years ago, just missed it somehow as a kid so I watched it one day. For a cartoon owl, I feel they nailed the attitude pretty well with this guy.

It's based off the first section of the book Once and Future King by T. H. White. An amazing book, can't recommend it enough.

Exactly should be the top owl.

This halftime show accepts ~~walk-ons~~ fly-ons. An upvote is an upvote.

Next year you should do a full out fictional owl bracket. That would be cute and v fun

With all these extra owls that people are posting I just might. I didn't realize I'd left so many out.

What until the Guardians of Ga'hoole people show up!

Owls have been such a great symbolic and mythological creature for just about every civilization for tensnof thousands of years. I thought 250 real owls was way too many! 😉

Like Matt Damon?

And then the year after that, pair real owls with fictional owls for a 2v2 bracket

Soon the superbowl will be asking you to do an ad spot on the far more popular seasonal event

Same! Very disappoint!

So true. ✊🏽

...flying is not merely some crude, mechanical process. It is a delicate art. Purely aesthetic. Poetry of motion. And the best way to learn it is to do it.
