My Dad used to get us to behave by a threat of being hit by the rooney gun. It was something that he mad up as a silly, but stinky, weapon. A Rooney Gun is an athletic sock filled with dung, poop, scat - but it had a hole in the toe.
"If you kids don't stop running around like indians, I'm going to hit you with the rooney gun!"
Boom, like magic we stopped running like indians because we really thought that he had one hidden somewhere.

When you bring in a qualified balding or greying white male to interview for a job you know you have to fill with a woman or a minority, in order to ensure the whole day is taken up by interviews.
Steve has an interview on Friday but he knows he has no shot at getting the job. They're bringing him in to fulfill the Reverse Rooney Rule so their calendars appear full.
