Donkey Basketball

Recently I was asked to participate in a fundraiser that was being put on by the Strasburg High School Athletic Department.  All I was told was that some of the student's favorite teachers were being recruited from the elementary, middle, and high schools to play Donkey Basketball.  Now.... Being from Virginia Beach, I figured Donkey Basketball was a fun name for regular basketball where you played with some silly rule (ie.  you had to shoot only with your left hand or something like that)...  Ya... I was completely wrong.  Apparently at Strasburg, "Donkey Basketball" means DONKEY BASKETBALL!!!  Yes, other teachers and I participated in a basketball game in which you had to ride donkeys around the basketball court.  It was a crazy game with a crazy set of rules... you see, you couldn't shoot unless you were on your donkey... you couldn't even leave your donkey's side (so if the ball was just out of reach and your donkey wasn't budging... then you were fresh out of luck)  

Anyway, to say the least I never thought I would be able to claim that I was in a Donkey Basketball game. And now... Well... Have A LOOK!

Thats me... #41

My Donkey's name was RootBeer!
