Finally, Ben, we all know it can be tough to schedule a big group event.
It doesn't matter if it's a family reunion or a bachelor party or just a dinner.
People, we're busy.
You've got a wedding one weekend.
You've got a kid's soccer game the next.

This year's G7 meeting by a day to avoid stepping on President Trump's 80th birthday bash slash ultimate fighting championship event at the White House.
The summit is on Evian Le Bon, which is a beautiful resort town.
I'll go on Lake Geneva.
Yeah, it's going to take place now on June 15th and 16th instead of June 14th and 15th to avoid upsetting Mr. Trump and Mr. Dana White.
the big boss over at the UFC.

That's a good call.
The new Japanese prime minister may make it too.
