The team is leaving for Tacoma and Portland tonight and with them goes our boss, KP, on a rare journey to the mighty northwest. For Ben and Alex, this means one thing: press-box office chair races are back!

Early odds have Alex as the 4-1 favorite, seeing as how Ben has a troubled history with races and I haven’t been able to locate my conscience since the late 1990s. And for the first time in a long time, there has been some talk of allowing a female intern to race with the boys. It’s still early though and the race is only a three-chair contest which may fill before then, leaving the girls a-watching.

In all seriousness though, the world’s not ready for mixed-gender chair racing.

Over the next week we expect a few good blogs from KP, as he explores the far-and-away lands, and a few awesome posts from us! So stay tuned.
