Once upon a time, Jarrod Lakemore was a bright eyes and bushy tailed young rookie that just loved going to fan events or doing autograph sessions and would always agree to do them for the team. But after several seasons of doing it, it did start to grow old on him. Now as a grizzled veteran, with his body and mind more in need of a break than ever before, he instead tries to limit how often he does these events and now will try to find ways to weasel his way out of attending. To achieve this, he has found the simplest solution to appease the GM is to be able to offer up a replacement to take his place at the event. While certainly Lakemore isn't a believer in rookie hazing, he does know that there certainly are benefits to being a seasoned veteran in the league. So naturally he'll call one of the rookies up and offer him the exciting opportunity to attend this fan event. And let's be honest, the rook will enjoy it way more than Lakemore would going to his 100th fan session. (192 words)
