A tiny Yorkshire Terrier named Peanut just delivered a Super Bowl halftime show performance that people are still replaying. Dressed in white sunglasses and a full white outfit, the little Yorkie rises dramatically out of a cardboard stadium, like he has been training for this moment his entire life.
The Tiny Yorkshire Terrier halftime show parody leans fully into the spectacle. As Peanut pops up from the mini stadium set and starts “dancing,” it is clear this dog understood the assignment. The production value alone, complete with gloves and stage cues from his dog mom, makes it feel like a true Super Bowl Halftime performance tribute. Bad Bunny would be so proud!
The TikTok clip was shared by @gettishow, and the caption reads, “Watch Peanut, the adorable Yorkie, steal the show as Bad Bunny during the Super Bowl Halftime performance!”
Peanut’s entrance is what really sells it. He slowly rises from the cardboard arena while his cat brother, wearing a tiny straw Panama hat, watches from the audience like a slightly confused but supportive critic. That cat’s expression alone deserves an award.

Viewers were immediately obsessed. “I would watch this halftime show on REPEAT!! Bad Peanut is awesome and has a new fan!” one person wrote. Another admitted, “I’m just mad I didn’t have this idea.”
Several people declared it superior to the Puppy Bowl. “This is better than the Puppy Bowl,” one commenter said, while another added, “The best puppy dog halftime show ever.” Someone else couldn’t get over the details: “Loving the entrance and exit. Very classy.”
“The icon, the cat took me out, hahahaha,” one viewer said, and honestly, same. The silent side-eye from the cat in the hat adds a whole extra layer of comedy.
“I can’t stop watching this,” another person wrote. And that tracks. It has that loopable quality where you notice something new every time, whether it is the gloves, the sunglasses, or the tiny, dramatic dance moves.
As someone who has absolutely replayed a dog video more times than I would publicly admit, I get it. If one of my own crew tried to rise out of a cardboard stadium in sunglasses, I would be insufferable about it for weeks. So many props to this clever dog mama for this adorably hilarious video!
Five Fun Facts About the Puppy Bowl
The Puppy Bowl actually debuted in 2005 as an alternative to the Super Bowl for animal lovers. It airs on Animal Planet and features adoptable puppies playing on a miniature football field.
All the puppies featured in the Puppy Bowl come from shelters and rescue organizations across the country. The event has helped raise awareness about pet adoption and has led to countless puppies finding homes.
The game includes a referee, slow-motion replays, and even a halftime show. Over the years, kittens, bunnies, and other animals have also made appearances during special segments.
The field is designed with chew toys instead of footballs, and “touchdowns” are scored when puppies carry toys into the end zone. It is chaos, but adorable chaos.
And yes, the Puppy Bowl has become such a staple that many viewers tune in specifically for it, and sometimes more than the actual football game.
After watching Peanut’s halftime spectacle, though, it is safe to say he might have just secured his own spot in the Puppy Bowl Hall of Fame.
