It's high time we reassert our dominance over domesticated mammals. Bravo!

It is more humane than "small orphan child" basketball.

I loved Donkey Ball! Think I even beat it a few times. I liked Donkey Ball Jr. more though - more chains.

/anyone else think "donkey ball" is code for "summon gorgor"?

animals' backs are stressed by having to carry more than 100 pounds. ... There are American's that weigh less than 100 pounds ??? Umpa Lumpas don't count remember.

We had one of these events at my high school in the mid-90's. A lot of fun, good time had by all. The donkeys were cool, we let them run around on our baseball field after the basketball game was over.

But Donkey Ball 3 sucked! The pesticide spray can was inappropriate.
I will say that Jumpman Water Spray for the Home Electronic System was, in my mind, a great game, though.
Remember the extra level when Jumpman was in a Pachinco game?

Another old timer. And I remember donkey basketball at my high school about 35 years ago myself.

Having seen a donkey show before I never want to see anything involving a donkey again. Honestly, I can't even look a donkey in the eye without thinking about how many mexican whores it has defiled. If I ever go to the Grand Canyon I am walking my own ass down and back.

"If these donkeys weren't doing this, they would probably be in a dog-food can somewhere."

Ewww...

I remember a donkey basketball game at my high school back in the mid-90s. Average attendance for a boy's/girl's basketball game was about 250. Donkey basketball brought out 2000+ SRO. Good times had by all. And trust me, there's no way that they are starved before the games. All of the donkeys shiat everywhere...some more than once.

If I were a donkey, I'd definitely want to be doing this.

We also had donkey softball when I was a kid...the combatants played the game but had to keep their donkey's leash in their hands at all times...you could either ride, lead, or pull your donkey around the bases...I'd like to see Arod and Jeter do that.

Realistically, basketball is probably a decent life as donkey's lives go. They get to brag in the barnyard about being a professional athlete and probably get all kinds of "ass." It's not like they would be working on a cure for cancer otherwise.

You know, after the MPAA and RIAA, I hope most that someone shoots up the PETA headquarters.

the only jackasses around here are the ones who think there is something wrong with this game.

I'm not sure they have one. I always figured PETA was like Al-Queda, but with nudity and picket signs instead of car bombs and box cutters.

Your lack of wit aside, you have a good point. Think of it as a less sophisticated version of polo, where the fun comes from the fact that donkeys are infinitely less cooperative.

It only looks like cruelty to the donkeys until you've been bit by one.

THIS! PETA was behind a recent attempt in Montana to outlaw "Pit Bulls and any Pit Bull type dogs"

/ PETA also wanted Whitefish to change its name to "Sea Kitten"
// PETA sux and I hope they all DIAF
/// Pits rule

They have headquarters in Norfolk, VA. I got ot Old Dominion University and they come to campus all the time and hand out information. I farking hate them.

/It is fun to walk by them wearing a leather jacket though.
