Donkey Basketball Game
This coming Monday night, the 27th, there will be a donkey basketball game at Harrisville Central School between the seniors and the Harrisville Fire Department. Nathan will be the mascot "Pirate" for the game. In discussing this term, "donkey basketball", with Nathan, he had some very interesting things to say. In his opinion there would never be donkeys allowed in the school gym for 2 very important reasons. 1) People are allergic to "donkey dander" and 2) Donkeys poop and that would ruin the gym floor.
Now, Ken and I were laughing tremendously with his statements that he so firmly believes. Because of our laughter Cressalyn is convinced that we aren't telling them the truth about this. We seem to be making this up! We tried to get them to wager on this issue, but we have taught them to never bet on things.
Nathan and Cressalyn haven't been exposed to anything like this and so cannot fathom the idea of someone playing basketball on the back of a donkey. So there MUST be another explaination to this game. Nathan thinks that someone was just lazy and couldn't come up with a better name so they called it "donkey basketball."
Ken and I have decided that we WILL be attending this game just to watch our children react! Trust me, I will have pictures!

Have you explained to the kids how the donkeys dribble on the court or shoot the ball? Can't wait to hear their reactions. Tell them that Uncle David has played in a donkey basketball game before...in PA. We love you guys and miss you. Enjoy the fun. Uncle David and Aunt Bea
