Squash finally came last week to my favorite television show, The Office. 

At the end of the episode “Doomsday,” Jim gets on court with Robert California for a nice little game. Jim, having never played before, shows up in all-whites—the whole premise is that squash is a preppy game, so I must wear white; California is in colors—the whole premise being that squash’s preppy image is not reality. Well, that is one way to read into it. Jim’s pretty awful at squash (so is California) but they are wearing protective eyewear, which was a nice touch. 

Now, The Office is set in Scranton and there are no courts in Scranton. The nearest might be Allentown, a lone and possibly neglected hardball court at Muhlenberg College; or more likely Easton, where there are six softball courts at Lafayette College. The show is filmed in Los Angeles, so we’ll wait to hear which club.
