I need to move to Kansas City.  Sounds like “Ditch Day” is a thing. The Royals mascot Slugerrr is hyping up the tradition of skipping work to take in a ROAD game on TV with some friends.  Nice community builder and productivity destroyer.

Here is an example of the fun being offered around town, via Facebook Groups. And a reminder than not every event is at your ballpark.

⚾️ DITCH DAY⚾️
Get your doctor’s note ready to watch the Kansas City Royals take on the New York Yankees.

• • Contests
  • Giveaways of Royals tickets + Autographed SWAG
  • Ice cold beer and drink specials?
  • Yard games
  • Ballpark Food

Admission is FREE. Tickets/reservations are not required.
Meet up with friends or coworkers for an afternoon away from the office.
Families welcome.

Ditch in time for first pitch.

Join @Sluggerrr on Thursday to watch our game against the Yankees at KC Live!#TogetherRoyal pic.twitter.com/KDqkjwM4Vq
