The better part of my day today was spent on another mission delivering schedule cards and posters for men's and women's basketball as well as wrestling. It isn't difficult to do at all, but it amazes me how much some of the businesses want those cards. The second they realize I'm with the athletic department and I'm passing these things out they gets all sorts of excited. It just goes to show you how big sports really are, especially in a town in which the university is the only sports option around. That's one of the reasons I want to work in sports especially at a university because a lot of people in the town are huge fans of the university's sports teams.
Something else I had to do was fill out pass sheets for women's basketball games for the coaches from a local high school. There are 9 home games left, the high school has 4 coaches, and I had to fill out a separate form for each person for each game. That came out to 36 different forms. Again, this wasn't something that was hard, but it was time consuming because I had to fill out each form by hand. I was completing all these forms and the entire time I was thinking this form would be perfect as a PDF. I could use the form wizard in Adobe Acrobat to make it where I could type on it and it would save so much time. I didn't have time to mention that to Megan, but I will later on if I remember.
I'm looking forward to Friday as I will be working my first event that day. I'm going to be working wrestling and it will be rather interesting because I've never actually seen a real wrestling match. Yes, I've seen wrestling on TV, but I'm pretty sure I won't see anybody hitting someone else with a chair. I think it should be a fun experience, and I can't wait to report on it.
