Move over, Riley Curry! There's a new viral sensation in town.
Portland Trail Blazers center Meyers Leonard won a wager with his fiancee, Elle, on Monday. His reward: permission to include his canine companion, Bella, in their wedding ceremony.
The 23-year-old big man bet his bride-to-be that he could get 3,000 retweets from netizens, and if he wound up victorious, Bella, a Siberian Husky, would be allowed to participate in their upcoming nuptials.

Luckily for Leonard, it didn't take long for Bella to deliver on her end of the bargain.
Low balled that RT amount. Shouldn't have settled for less than 10k!! Looks like Bella is in the wedding. You're welcome @MeyersLeonard11
