The Anaheim Outlaws did a couple of team building events including the Paint-balling described above that helped me and the other rookies start to feel integrated and comfortable in the locker room. As someone who grew up in the UK and had little familiarity with any US cities, much less the Anaheim and greater LA area, my personal favorite was the city wide scavenger hunt. They had us split into teams and of course put the three of us rookies (Strom Chaimberlain, Grant Thurber and myself), together. So the first item was to get a girls number at a specific bar that will go unnamed here but it was all the way over in Santa Monica across town. Now none of us rookies are familiar with the area so I put it in my GPS and it tells me it's going to be over an hour and a half from our team facility. First of all, it took us even longer than that and when we got there none of us were even old enough to get in. Strom ended up getting a number in the parking lot somehow, and we go on with the hunt. The whole thing took us hours. When we got back to the team facility all the vets were just laughing at us. The whole thing was basically just rookie hazing and none of the vets even did it. Plus we missed a team meeting. Coach was pretty tough on us at practice the next day even though I'm pretty sure he was in on it.
