Buckingham U. Badger owns a large house in Green Bay. The house is right next to, and faces, the parking lot at Lambeau Field, home of the Green Bay Packers football team. Badger rents out his house and front yard on game days to fans who wish to engage in tailgate parties before and after the Packer game. Bubba Fann loves the Green Bay Packers. He wants to throw a big tailgate party for all his Packer friends for the Packer-Viking game on a Sunday in November. In September, Fann and Badger entered into a verbal agreement that required Fann to pay Badger $1,000 to use Badger’s house all day on the Sunday of the game, and Fann then sent a check to Badger for the full amount. A week before the game, ESPN television and the National Football League changed the game date from Sunday to Monday night so that the Packer game can be featured on the Monday Night Football telecast.Fann demands his money back from Badger. What is Fann’s best argument?

Shirley owns a hair salon in Minnesota.  On June 22, 2023, Cal Clipper began working as a hair stylist at one of Shirley’s salons. Before Cal began working for Shirley, Cal signed a non-compete agreement that prohibited Cal from working for a period of 18 months “at any hair salon within ten miles” of Shirley’s salon.  On September 10, 2024, Cal quit working for Shirley, and immediately began working at another salon that is eight miles away from Shirley’s salon. Shirley sued Cal, asking the court to enjoin him from working at the new salon.
