So, You're Stuck in Kansas City on a Sunday? Don't Despair! There's More to Life Than Chiefs Games (Probably)
Let's face it, Kansas City on a Sunday can feel like a ghost town sometimes. All the stores are boarded up tighter than Fort Knox, and the streets are tumbleweed-worthy. But fear not, weary traveler (or bored local)! There's still fun to be had, even if it involves a little digging.

The Lowdown on Sunday in KC
Here's the skinny on what's shakin' in Kansas City today, July 21st, 2024 (because, let's be honest, Sunday Scaries don't wait for Monday to show up):
- Artsy Fartsy: The Nelson-Atkins Museum isn't throwing a lawn party today, but there's always something to see there. Plus, admission is free (score!). If miniatures are your jam, check out the Annual Heartland Art Guild International Miniatures Art Show. How tiny can art get? You be the judge!
- Laughs Not Requiring Yoga Pants: Feeling peckish and funny? Head to Border Brewing for Reverse Happy Hour. It's like happy hour, but... well, the opposite. Perfect for those who missed out on the fun earlier in the week. KC Comedy: Off the Rails is also happening at Knuckleheads if you're feeling more stand-up vibes.
- The Great Outdoors (Because It's Not on Fire... Yet): Farmers markets are a Sunday staple, and Lenexa Farmers Market is a great option for some fresh air and locally-made goodies. Need some retail therapy with a side of relaxation? Sip & Shop might be your jam. Wine, shopping, what's not to love?
Bonus: If you're feeling sporty (or just need an excuse to yell), catch the Royals vs White Sox game. It's Huskers Night, so expect a whole lotta corn jokes (probably).
QuickTip: Treat each section as a mini-guide.
