Donkey Basketball - The Black Eyed Peas

Every year for the last three years Gillette has held a fundraiser for the local 4-H clubs called Donkey Basketball. There are four players that ride donkeys and a person in the middle of the basketball court. They have to shoot sitting on the donkey and can get off to retrieve the basketball but have to hold on to the donkeys reins at all times. It is rather amusing watching these guys try to pull their donkeys or watch them try to hold on while the donkey is bucking and running down the court. Most teams dress up in funny outfits to make it fun. This year Preston's friend and him put a team together and played. They had a great time and Preston got kinda of frustrated because his donkey wouldn't go past the three point line. They did good and ended up making it the championship game against the local sheriffs department Dare officers. If the ball went out of bounds or got loose people in the audience would always give it to them - the Dare officers ended up winning - but they had a blast playing and all the money went to a great cause!!
