Set on game day in a big city, sports fans have all turned into animals–literally–as they make their way to see the big match-up either at the stadium or a local bar. Among the animal activities: There are chimps swinging from traffic lights and swarming a ticket office, an orangutan hanging out of the window of a taxi, bears growling at each other while playing a game of table soccer, and sea lions flooding a subway platform and exchanging words with a group of hyenas crowded onto a subway car.
