I took my 5th grade students to a minor league baseball game one time and it only got approved because we were working on throwing and catching.

Thanks, that's kind of what I figured. Some of these trips just seem bizarre and knowing multiple people signed off makes it so much worse lol.

The best field trip disclamer I ever had to sign was the one for the old Marineland, where you had to release them of all liability if your child were to jump into the Orca tank when occupied by the Great Beast (tho there was no mention of coming face to face with the blowhole). I kinda figured that was a given, but I guess not in the legal world. Naturally, I accompanied them to that one.
