Take Me Out To The Ball Game

Whenever trying to enhance the at times oppressive atmosphere of your work place and in an effort to team build, what better way than to have a "night out" at the local stadium for a rousing spectator sport experience. Hire a bus, invite any and all co-workers with significant others and extended family members, simply board the happy yellow bus and off you go for what will definitely prove to be a memorable time. Of course while your intentions are pretty honourable (though you do confess to being a bit of a sportsaholic) you still have to do a fair amount of promotion if your idea is to fly, besides which you need to reach the necessary magic number to be able to hire that school bus at a reasonable rate. You must then make a seating plan for the game itself ensuring that nobody is placed beside a person that they are not overly fond of which is quite a challenge even though you deal with this type of issue on a daily basis and it is one of the reasons you've decided to take on planning this excursion. You can only hope that once all is said and done, nothing goes awry; you pray that no one gets lost in the crowd and that the collective behaviour of the group is in no way an embarrassment to your company. If all this is in place then you can count on a good time being had by all.
