SOT: Intimidating creature walking the streets of Norfolk (ODU related)
Quote: ...three callers to 911 on Tuesday reported a baby lion, the city of Norfolk said today.
Two calls came after 10 a.m. on Granby Street near the zoo and on Llewellyn Avenue.
About 1:20 p.m., another 911 caller reported seeing a baby lion on Colley Avenue at 50th Street.
“I’d like to report a lion sighting,” one caller said.
“Say that again?” a dispatcher replied.
In the call near the zoo, a woman said, “There was a lion that ran across the street – a baby lion. It was about the size of a Labrador retriever.” Another caller said, “I don’t know if it got away from the zoo or what.”
The dog, a Labrador-poodle mix named Charles the Monarch, is owned by Daniel Painter, who owns a garden shop on Colley Avenue where the dog is regularly seen.
Painter said he has the dog groomed to look like the Old Dominion University mascot.

Apparently because of this the dog and the family will be making the rounds of the network morning shows. Great publicity, hopefully the athletic department is watching this, he could be our Uga.

WOW, people can't tell a poodle from a lion? Have they not watch the dicovery channel like ever? Baby loins don't have manes.
But, good PR for ODU and funny story. If I was ODU, I'd see about using the dog in some way.

You should probably follow your own advice.
This thread beat yours by about 3 hours and the one on Lion's Den (LINK) beat you by 31 hours.

He does hit the tailgate lots pretty hard, he'll get down on some ice cream and cake in a second. He does look down right scary.
