Dodgers Disband Blue Babes

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

**MEDIA ADVISORY**

DODGERS ANNOUNCE DISBANDING OF "THE BLUE BABES"

Six dancers ruin it for entire team

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers have announced the dissolution of "The Blue Babes," the dance team slated to provide between-innings entertainment at Dodgers games this season.

"We are sad to announce that, due to circumstances beyond our control, the Blue Babes will be unable to perform as a group," said choreographer Kaitlyn Portmanteau. "Unfortunately, an alternative media outlet gained access to six of our members, corrupting them with promises of instant fame and publishing power and destroying the delicate group dynamic so crucial to dance team cohesiveness.

"We were hoping our dancers wouldn't succumb to the temptations of Hollywood, but it's a lesson we'll take into the future."

Dodgers officials said they would replace the planned between-innings dance entertainment with rock music played at high decibel levels and surefire crowd-pleasers such as the Disney™ hat shuffle and Chevy™ dot race.
