Does anyone have fun ideas to keep about 70/80 high school kids (girls and boys) entertained on a 6 hour bus ride?
The girl I coach with decided she's going to be the cranky coach and I get to be the fun coach [emoji19]

Guided meditation? Okay, just kidding.

That is quite a task... Yikes. You could do trivia. Print out some packets of information about wherever you're going for them to read. Do trivia on the packets. Winner gets a 50$ gift card. Do 3 rounds of this. The 150$ spent might be worth saving your sanity.
 
Any medical people on the boards? I need to get a medical id bracelet (or something of the like) for my severe latex allergy and I was wondering if a cute one would be noticed like a more traditional one is? I'm looking at getting one similar to an Alex and ani bracelet:

Honestly, if you came into an ER with the Alex and Ani style, I probably wouldn't notice. There are some nice styles of the more traditional medical alert bracelets.

Maybe not identical, but another non-mede alert looking one is Road ID Road ID - World Leaders in Runner ID, Cycling ID & Medical ID Tags They're used by a lot of cyclists/runners/triathletes while training too.
 
If you give a gift at the shower, do you bring one to the wedding too? I'm just now entering the age where my friends are getting married and everything is so confusing (I'll be going to my fourth "friend" wedding this year)

Trust me I've been all about this recently (four friend weddings so far this year. Hooray for being 25). I've read it can go either way, but I usually feel awkward showing up empty handed to either. So I've done a small registry gift for the shower (which is more about the opening of presents and receiving items) and usually a gift card inside a greeting card for the wedding. Not tons, maybe $30 bucks if I got a shower present too. I did $50 for my friends that I did not attend a shower, and I went solo. I probably would have given $100 had I brought a plus one.

I'm in the south if that helps. I've never written a check but have found gift cards are always well received. Home Depot/Lowes if they are moving into a house soon. If not, Target or a Visa gift card works too.
 
Question for those who went to beyonce! did she have an opening act? And what time approx. did she come on? I love 20 miles away from the stadium, but with traffic it will take me 2+ hours, I'm just trying to plan if I'll need to leave work early or not.

Maybe modify a camp game to work on a bus?

No she did not. Her DJ (Jermaine Dupri) plays a little set in the beginning, though.

Tickets said she'd start at 7:30.

She did not come on until almost 9 (I think she waits for it to get dark due to the stage setup?)

It varies city to city.

DJ Khaled is on tour with her but doesn't go to every stop

At the Atlanta concert DJ Khaled came on right at 7:30....he brought out TI, Ludacris, August Alsina, Yo Gotti, Rick Ross and 2 Chainz and The Dream. Who he brings out varies from city to city. You could get a lot of people like in Atlanta....or nobody like in Raleigh.

She came on at 9:06. With exception of bad weather she comes on around 9. (At some show in Canada she came on at 7 because of weather... Minneapolis think was moved up or back as well) Look at @beylite and @formationwt on Twitter. They do a good job of covering that kind of stuff



And it's lowkey sad to hear that she crawled into a swamp and looked under a rock to find Jermaine Dupri. Dang that sucks

as crazy as the cheer world is getting these days, I still miss it a tremendous amount. it's been three years since I last competed, but am still interested in coaching. is it worth a shot or have I been out of the game too long to be considered an asset to a gym?

IMO not too long at all. Go for it.
