OT - is this scary or what!

[Mark Padgett]

Guess who will be in attendance at my local high school's game tonight? A live tiger! The school's teams are called the "Tigers". Here's a short version of the story:

"Tigard High School’s Sports Marketing 2 class will host a jungle-themed event, which will include a live tiger, tonight at its basketball doubleheader against Glencoe. The class is requesting everyone who attends to wear white. The Tiger arrives at 5 p.m. before the 5:45 p.m. tipoff for the girls game, followed by the 7:30 p.m. tipoff of the boys game."

OK - what would you do if the tiger roared whenever an opponent was going to shoot a free throw - eject him? Good luck with that. Also, does "wearing white" have something to do with keeping the tiger calm? I pity the fool who wears the school color of green.

Oh yeah - I assume the tiger will be in a cage.
