Butler Blue Iii Denied Access To Pnc Arena Enraging Humans And Canines Alike

Fans — both dogs and humans alike — took to Twitter to express their displeasure.

Trip’s predecessor Blue II encountered similar obstacles in 2011, but made on-court appearances during both of Butler’s Final Four appearances in 2010 and 2011.

Trip has also made multiple roadtrips with the team, including a memorable trip to Madison Square Garden for the Big East tournament last year.

Butler won Thursday, meaning they’ll play again Saturday in PNC. Trip will be sticking around the Raleigh area. But unless there’s a brisk NCAA rule change, he won’t be making an appearance in the gym.

But have no fear. He’ll still be entertaining fans by doing things like running on a treadmill.

No word on whether or not Trip puked after his jog.
