Dog Relieves Himself, Delays Magic Game

Tue Jan 18, 8:47 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 seeing-eye 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.

The pooch got it right. Not about the game but about the NBA.

I suppose this is newsworthy because in a rare NBA moment, there was ONLY one turd on the court instead of the usual number.

Raheed was Disgusted?

Give me a bone so I can bounce it off his uppity up head.

It was a canine charity event to assist the disabled. Poop Happens Rasheet!

Who is that idiot Blazer player who got popped for using his pit bull in betting dog fights?

The character of these Professional Basketball Players sucks!

Poor dog was probably humiliated.

Who said truth isn't stranger than fiction.
Give that pooch a medal. Most likely the best entertainment that evening.

Unusual -- typically when you go to a Detroit game, you only get Piston...

Should the dog have done what it did?

It Depends.
