A rabies shot isn't generally considered an occupational hazzard of an NBA off guard. But the San Antonio Spurs's Manu Ginobili revealed on Facebook that that was the treatment required after a game, appropriately enough, on Halloween. Chiggity check out this amazing video of a bat running the fast break with the Sacramento Kings, Manu Ginobili issuing a hard foul to his fellow mammal by swatting it to the floor, and then scooping the creature up with his hand. Given my contempt for the bats who had invaded my attic this summer, and my girlish response to the winged intruders, Manu Ginobili is now my hero.

If you watch the video more closely, you will see that the bat only flies close by Ginobili, at which point he falls down, pretends to have been bitten, and draws the foul.

LOL! Well done.
