Today's Holidays

Celebrate the weird stuff. We do.

Holiday #1 of 4

National Kickball Day

<p data-id="111fd460-28f2-4577-ad53-afcbf868c227" id="111fd460-28f2-4577-ad53-afcbf868c227">National Kickball Day is that sacred little blip on the calendar where grown adults pretend a rubber ball and a patch of grass can fix their personality. It’s dodgeball’s less-litigious cousin: same childhood trauma, fewer dental claims, and somehow more arguing about made-up rules. Everybody shows up convinced they’ve “still got it,” right up until their hamstring files a formal complaint and their pride pretends it didn’t hear. So lace up, stretch like you mean it, and remember: today isn’t about winning—it’s about discovering which of your friends becomes a war criminal the moment a red ball rolls their way.</p>
