Kolo the gorilla correctly predicts NCAA Final Four, now takes on the Masters (video)

When making sports bets, I always first consult my gorilla. Kolo the Gorilla made headlines and was adopted by ABC’s Good Morning America after the ape correctly picked the NCAA Men’s Final Four, and then predicted that UConn would be the Natonial champion. Now, the Columbus Zoo resident has been tasked with picking the winner of the Masters. He’s approaching the boxes, and his choice is …
Tiger Woods. It’s a big gamble for Kolo, but then everyone knows that gorillas are fond of longshots. Woods is currently tied for 26th at 1-under 71, although it’s early.
In case there’s trouble with the above video, here’s a link.
Kolo, the next Paul the Octopus, or simian one-shot wonder? If Woods indeed collects his first championship since 2009, this will be huge. And a certain ape will have a guest room at a certain Florida mansion, with full pool privileges.
