Rider Sandals Announces Fall Collegiate Foosball Tour

Forget about politics, foreign policy, housing market woes, domestic unemployment, and all the other news that weighs us down every day. Rider Sandals makes casual footwear, and they sponsor foosball events at colleges around the US. How can that not bring a smile to your face? Seriously. If you have a chance, go check this out. It’s a great escape in a laid back atmosphere. No overpaid athletes – just college students having fun. I applaud Rider’s creative way to reach potential consumers.
