Oh, probably.  They said that once in a while, they had to fly to an
event.  Of course, if you have to work, and are *required* to be at a
certain event, I suspect that can happen.

by events taking all weekend.

I'd heard that, too.  I also heard about the feast where a certain lady
said, "I want steak and potatoes.  Document it, and serve it to me."
Apparently, the cooks managed to do so.
