There is one person who does it better: Mayor John Giles
Charade.
It's a guessing game.
Originally, the game was a dramatic form of literary charades: a single person would act out each syllable of a word or phrase in order, followed by the whole phrase together, while the rest of the group guessed.
Playing charades can help build team camaraderie.
Many people have played charades as a child or in a party situation, but using it in a workplace setting is a novel approach to team building that people enjoy.
The basic rules involve identifying words or phrases.

What would you guess is going on by this iconic image of the mayor captured by Ivan Martinez?
Clue: it was a stunt to start off a privately-financed $500,000+ public relations campaign to trick Mesa taxpayers to go into a $200,000,000 debt obligation to finance a 3-building "satellite campus" for ASU here in downtown Mesa.
Mesa taxpayers REJECTED it in 2016
What would you guess about this one?________________________________________
BLOGGER NOTE:
There's really few reasons left to guess about this one - use the Search box on this to view more posts on plans for ASU for what's got a new name
ASU@Mesa City Center.
Looks like plans were made ahead of time to capitalize on that, based on 'insider information' that's somewhat now more than obvious . . .
Two or more characters were added to an appearance in front of a public meeting of the Mesa City Council in February 2018. Following 'rumors' that then AZ Senator Bob Worsley had snatched up of a portfolio of 8 downtown properties for $20M before the end of 2017 gambling on his own private wealth creation at the same time holding public office
Now that made national headlines with then AZ-Senator Jeff Flake getting urged on to run for President.
It happened at a town hall meeting here in Mesa. Giles swears publicly he's 'non-partisan' and yet was urging Flake to run for office as 'a foil' . . . for Who? Mebbe Mitt?

Here's a clue to this latest installment for The Game of Charade here in Mesa:
The Pay-Off for a $94M debt
(that's the story they want to be told at least)
The City of Mesa has no "home team", except for all the salaried and elected players inside City Hall. They somehow managed to finance not one but two ball parks.

Chris Brady's own playbook.
It started a long time ago when he had a plan for the playbook.
It took a while to 'juggle the books' and find the right time and the right places to see off 'obsolete water-rights' to more than 11,400 acres on the Mesa Farm in Pinal County.
