      3) Lock up a friend in the Dog Pound !!

The Dog Pound !  

You choose the accused: You determine the crime: You recommend the fine. Damon Scott makes sure everyone knows about it!

We will lock up you or your friend with or without their dog in the Dog Pound. The warden will review the crime and set a final fine. They will need use their cell phone and plead with the crowd to raise money to pay their fine and get out of the Dog Pound. We do encourage you to pre-arrange this so your friend can arrange some donations in advance. Latest rumor is that Damon Scott has been accused of something too bizarre to print and will be locked up in the Dog Pound. See Dog Pound nomination forms for additional details.
