By almost anyone's standards, The Office is one of the greatest TV shows of all time.

The show is equal parts comforting and hilarious. The real appeal of the show is how familiar its is. If you walk the halls of any small, medium or large corporate office in America, you'll meet a Dwight, a Michael and a Stanley because despite what Michael says, Stanleys do grow on trees. But if you want to meet Meredith, to really meet her, you'll need to get to Hartford, specifically Dunkin' Park. .

Meredith AKA Actress Kate Flannery will be a guest of the Hartford Yard Goats on May 3rd for an Office celebration night. This is how the Yard Goats website explains the evening.

"The one where we celebrate one of the most beloved shows of all time. Meet Kate Flannery, AKA Meredith, from The Office and check out the special VIP package for a Meet & Greet. The Yard Goats host the Phillies affiliate, with gates opening at 6pm. The VIP Meet & Greet ticket is the ONLY guaranteed way to meet Kate Flannery."

Meredith is not the only star stopping by this summer. Another Thursday Night NBC name is committed to the Hartford schedule.

Actor John O'Hurley AKA J. Peterman is going to be a featured guest of the Yard Goats on August 31st.

"The one where we celebrate one of the most beloved shows of all time. Meet John O'Hurley AKA Elaine's boss Mr. Peterman, from Seinfeld and check out the special VIP package for a Meet & Greet. The Yard Goats host the Giants affiliate, with gates opening at 6pm. The VIP Meet & Greet ticket is the ONLY guaranteed way to meet John O'Hurley."

I don't know about you, but this is exciting for me. Seinfeld and The Office are ranked #1 and #2 on my all-time list and the order changes based on the day you ask me. There are no small roles on these show because they remain relevant after all of these years. I'd put either show's reruns against any show on TV right now for quality and laughter.

P.S. I just about pooped my pants when I interviewed J. Peterman a few years back. The very pants I was wearing. 

Don't be surprised if you see me at Dunkin' Park this summer because this is right in my wheel house. Oh, and I hear the baseball is quite good as well.
