Camden’s Penguins Clarify: They are Rooting for the Flyers

This is important:
“The penguins at Adventure Aquarium are really excited to support the Philadelphia Flyers in their playoff run. Our loyalty is not with our species here, so we know that we want to support the Philadelphia Flyers.”
The woman in the video goes on to note that Camden’s penguins are the warm weather type, which, this is kind of pathetic, but I didn’t even know there were warm weather penguins. A cursory Googling reveals that these include the “African, Galapagos, Humboldt, and Magellanic” species, which adapt to the climate by “having smaller bodies, fewer feathers, and bare patches of skin around their eyes/beaks to dissipate heat.” The cold-weather penguins are the ones in Antarctica and they’ve got thick layers of blubber, like your typical Pittsburgh sports fan.
