Dog Relieves Itself on Court, Delays Game
Wed Jan 19, 6:18 PM ET Strange News - AP
ORLANDO, Fla. - Who didn't let the dog out? A stink was raised during halftime of the Detroit Pistons-Orlando Magic NBA game on Tuesday night when the start of the second half was delayed by three minutes after a guide dog relieved itself on the court.
The dog was with a charity organization, Canine Companions for Independence, that was receiving a $10,000 donation from the Orlando Magic Youth Foundation.
When the Pistons came out for warmups, Rasheed Wallace walked up to the lane where the excrement had fallen, stopped and stared in disbelief. His teammates were just as confused before wide smiles broke out.
A custodian was enlisted to scoop up the mess and wipe up the remains with cleaner, a mop and towels.

I sure hope the group takes that dog along to a Preparation H (Hitlery) speech.

Lucky custodian -- I thought the owner was responsible for cleanup.

Proof - if it were needed - that dogs are not only man's best friend, they are also his most astute critic.
