How to get out of a wedding for a college football game

  1. Do you have allergies? (you see where I'm going with this one).
  2. What's your position with respect to low grade food poisoning?
  3. Do you have a friend that is an attorney? (Request a fake "subpoena" for a weekend deposition. And bonus points, if you get caught, they can help you get started on your divorce.)
  4. Do you have a friend/family member who can have a well timed "emergency" for you?
  5. Do you have a job that has "on-call emergencies" that your wife would buy?
  6. Is your wife cool enough where she doesn't care if you can come as long as she has a good excuse for your absence? (This opens up a broad spectrum of possible lies).
  7. Do you have a history of "bum knees" or a "trick back" that could conveniently make a timely appearance?
  8. What's your stance on sabotaging your own home? i.e. hot water heater springs a leak that needs immediate attention?
  9. (Getting a little more deprived here) Have any older relatives (real or fake) sitting in hospice?
  10. When in doubt, go with Ferris Bueller.
