Unbelievably brave black cat took to the field on Monday during the Cowboys-Giants NFL football game to show off his amazing sprints. The game was delayed as he rushed all over MetLife Stadium.

During the second quarter, it is funny how the players and coaches stood on the sidelines while watching the fluffy cat showed them how it should be done.

Denying the capture, the chubby feline zigzagged across the turf refusing to look foolish in front of the audience.

Joe Tessitore, an ESPN commentator, said that the black cat which halted the Cowboys-Giants NFL football game has great lateral movements.

As the cat runs into the end zone, Harlan yelled "that is a touchdown'! The crowd roared with excitement that moment.

So what happens to the cat? It just slipped into a tunnel and disappeared into the night.

The Giants ended up losing that football game at 37-18.
