Don’t get us wrong, we love everything about Kansas City — some things we just love a little bit less than others.

With June in full swing, it’s a good time to look at what we think is in and what we’re considering out in the 816 this month.

In:

  • Pool days. See ours at the Westin Crown Center. Ballpark hot dogs at the Kauffman Stadium.
  • Pride Month celebrations — see our list.
  • Watching dozens of local artists perform at Boulevardia (Friday, June 16-Saturday, June 17).

Out:

  • Sunburns at Sporting KC games (wear sunscreen, please).
  • Forgetting to make a reservation for your favorite rooftop bar.
  • A lack of Chiefs football. Don’t worry — preseason will be here before we know it.
  • People who park on the KC Streetcar tracks. Don’t be that person.
