Description

It's Super Bowl Sunday! Since Ty, Meredith and Jay were born and raised (and never escaped) in Kansas City, they are jacked! But there's one problem: they have to work the next morning. Many have suggested making the Monday after the Super Bowl a holiday, which got the gang thinking what other days should be holiday. Find out what they came up with and why this Super Bowl is an important one for Kansas City.
