Live Chicken Basketball Is All The Rage On YouTube

Live chicken basketball is the newest sport to make its way onto social video sharing website YouTube.

A new video posted on July 2, 2013 shows a young shirtless boy as he carries a chicken to a basketball net and then throws it up into the air.

The chicken flaps its wings and then falls right through the hoop.

The video is probably going to be called out by animal rights activists, but, hey, it’s better than killing the chicken and then eating it.

We’re also willing to overlook the fact that not once did the boy dribble the chicken, which led to an obvious case of traveling.

YouTube user FirstLeakTV have received just over 1,000 views for the video in less than 24 hours.

So maybe chicken basketball won’t become the next big sports, but the video is worth a watch.
