With just hours to go before puck drop, fans are already barking (pun intended) about his latest pick. And honestly? He might just be onto something.
AirCorg picks his Stanley Cup Game 1 winner and fans are treating it like gospel
You know things are getting serious when even the dogs are choosing sides. AirCorg, the fluffy forecaster who's gone viral on Instagram for predicting sports outcomes, made his official pick for Panthers vs. Oilers Game 1 and of course, the internet lost its mind.
In the latest video via @aircorg, posted to his Instagram account, the adorable pup stood between two mini hockey nets, one repping the Florida Panthers, the other for the Edmonton Oilers, the little legend zipped around the mini rink, circling the nets a whopping seven times before finally making his decision.
After all that buildup, he slid the puck straight into the Edmonton Oilers' basket, officially locking in his pick for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final.
AirCorg picks the Oilers' to win and fans are now convinced it's fate
And just like that, AirCorg has spoken. No stats. No logic. Just vibes. And honestly? He's had a pretty good track record, which is why fans now take his picks way more seriously than they probably should.
Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final kicks off tonight and the pressure is real
The tension is already sky-high heading into tonight's Stanley Cup Final Game 1, airing at 8 p.m. ET on
TNT
, Sportsnet, Sports on Max, and TVA Sports.
The Florida Panthers are looking to finally claim their first-ever Stanley Cup, while the Edmonton Oilers are chasing their first title since the Wayne Gretzky era.
So yeah, every edge counts even if it's coming from a corgi with an Instagram account.
Fans are fully divided over AirCorg's pick because of course they are
As expected, fans are already spiraling in the comments. Panthers fans are begging the corgi to change his mind. Oilers fans are celebrating. It's pure chaos, and that's what makes this annual AirCorg moment so iconic.
