Mavs Have Stowaways Occupy The Bench In Detroit
DETROIT (CBSDFW.COM) - A couple of beer-swilling guys with beards sat on the Dallas Mavericks' bench at Detroit Pistons game Tuesday night.
At first glance, it looks like a scene from Strange Brew. Were they part of the team? Are they Cuban's new secret weapon or just part of a player's entourage?
Basketball fans in attendance started to take notice of these non-uniformed guys kicking back with beers in hand thinking they simply had seats at the end of the Dallas bench, but it soon became obvious something was up when they took over the empty seats between Delonte West and Vince Carter.
It's tough to tell whether the best part of this is the video itself—complete with that terrific shot panning the Mavs bench until we get to our boys—the look on Carter's face, or the incredulous reactions of Pistons announcers George Blaha and Greg Kelser.
I'm going with Blaha's call: "Look, Delonte West, a couple guys enjoying cocktails, dressed inappropriately."
