Donkey ball game goes on despite protest

EDGAR - The threat of a lawsuit didn't stop the Edgar Future Farmers of America club from holding a donkey ball game at the local high school.

The group threatened legal action if the Edgar School District didn't cancel the game. Opponents were concerned the games could physically harm the donkeys because players ride atop the animals while trying to play basketball.
