Wednesday was National Dog Day around the country and what better way to celebrate than by bringing your best friend to a baseball game — namely your pooch.
One lucky pup ended up at Wednesday night's Dodgers-Reds game but seemed way more interested in this hot dog than the game or anything else his owner was yakking about:
Here's just a few of the other canine fans who showed up for Bark in the Park night at Great American Ball Park.
Grande's representative said Wednesday the singer would not perform Saturday at the Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati because she had some of her wisdom teeth removed Monday.
A representative for Lovato confirmed that she would perform Saturday instead.
Grande might have been booed off the stage by baseball fans anyway after the pint-sized pop star was caught on tape licking donuts on display in a shop and shouting, "I hate Americans. I hate America" in a video (below) that surfaced Tuesday.
Grande issued an apology while claiming that she would be bailing out because of her sweet tooth:
"As for why I cannot be at the MLB show, I have had emergency oral surgery and due to recovery I cannot attend the show. I hope to make it up to all those fans soon. That being said let me once again apologize if I have offended anyone with my poor choice of words."
With Grande out, Lovato is more than ready to step in as the new headliner.
"I'm so excited to be headlining the MLB All-Star Concert," said Lovato in the statement released by the league. "I hope my fans in Cincinnati are ready to get 'Cool for the Summer!"
The free concert during the 2015 MLB All-Star Week will also include pop-rock band Rixton, best known for the hit "Me and My Broken Heart." The 86th MLB All-Star Game will air July 14 on Fox from the Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati.
People have different opinions on the merits of the wave and where the fan participatory action originated. While some believe it's a fun ballpark tradition, others believe it's it's an annoying distraction from your hot dog and beer.
During Thursday's s Indians-Reds game, fans at Great American Ball Park added a new twist to the customary arm swaying by adding light.
And you have to wonder: What took so long?
Nobody is quite sure where the original wave started back in the early eighties, but now we know who to blame for the iPhone light show the next time a mesmerized outfielder drops the ball because he thought he was at a Bon Jovi concert.
