Louisiana's NBA Team, The New Orleans Pelicans, is a popular team that features an equally popular annual event that pits baby competitors against one another.

The event that takes place during half-time of a Pelicans race once a year is not an amazing race, but you could make an argument that the moniker is deserved after you see this year's winner.

Why Should A Louisiana Baby Receive A Gold Medal?

The winner blew the competition away!

Each year, The New Orleans Pelicans host a contest between babies. It's not The Amazing Race, but it's called The Pelicans 2025 Baby Crawl Race Contest, Presented by Ochsner Children's Hospital.

This year, 13 adorable contestants competed against each other to see who could race from one section of the court to another section of the court the fastest.

According to Fox Sports, the family of the baby who won walked away with prizes that included

  • A scooter
  • A wagon
  • A mini-hoop basketball set 

This memorable event was great for the parents who won the stuff, but it was also great for the crowd as a super-fast baby emerged as the winner.
