As the Athletic Director at Academic High School (AHS), you are responsible for securing officials for all home football games. You call referee A on the phone and he agrees to referee all five (5) home games this season for a fee of $100 per game.
Two days before the first game, referee A calls you and says he won't be available this season because he is moving out of town and will be refereeing home games for the high school in his new home town 200 miles away.
You immediately call referee B, who agrees to referee all home games for a fee of $150 per game. You decide to sue referee A.
