The DMBL did not expect to have a day off Sunday, but 90% of the league's players refused to play, noting that they should not have to play on National Pig Day. The DMBL Player's Union issued a statement, saying that forcing the players "to play on such a prestigious holiday is an affront to our civil liberties and a disgrace to the battles that pig rights activists have fought for so long." Many players took up positions outside the stadium along with their pet pigs to protest, singing such memorable pig rights songs as "Old Mcdonald" and "May had a Little Pig". Some fans brought grills and were turning the protest into an event, grilling up some delicious ribs and sausages.
The DMBL will resume games tonight, once the parking lots have been cleaned up.
