Nickelodeon has taken over the NFL and fans just can’t get enough. Twitter is teeming with people broadcasting photos from their televisions while SpongeBob SquarePants and his friends deliver a show for centuries. It’s a Wild Card playoff game between the Chicago Bears and the New Orleans Saints, but the biggest stars can be animated. (It’s pretty hard to deal with stars like Drew Brees and Khalil Mack on the field.) There was a slime cannon in the end zone and funny filters during the game. Infographics also got a Nick scent with Alvin and the Chipmunks aboard the broadcast. This is just a surreal scene, check out the fun below:

CBS Sports spoke to Noah Eagle, Nevaeh Green, Lex Lumpkin and Nate Burleson.
Eagle said: ‘This is a perfect opportunity to captivate a new audience of sports fans and football fans while being a family-friendly broadcast so the family can see it as a single unit and have fun. It’s going to be a mix of sport, entertainment, laughter, joy and all of the above, and we’re also expecting a good game that does no harm. ‘
“We are breaking it out in a way that everyone can understand whether you are nine or whether you are 32, you can still have fun watching this broadcast,” Green added. “I feel that adults will also really enjoy it, because we still provide the information you do need during the game. But we also present it in a very interesting and very unique way,” she said.
‘I totally expect to lose weight in a sense that I’ll be like a coach where you just do not see it coming … But I told other people that I might have to bring a shower cap because I take my hair very seriously, ”Eagle added.
