Great job with this one Garrett! Awesome to see it come together since the first draft. NYC is a paradox: the center of the world, an explosion of culture, and also a place of isolation. Enjoyed learning about KC through the lens of baseball. We'll have to check out a Mets/Royals game one day.
Thank you! Your feedback really helped this one finds its way. Well said — and I’d add that the loneliness is amplified when you feel alone in the midst of a crowd. Would love to catch a game at Citi together!
I’ve never been to Kansas City, but thanks to this piece, I feel a unique connection with it already. It’s pretty dang impressive to connect a random girl with a random city by just sharing your experience with it. Love seeing you explore the personal bits of your life on the page!

I really appreciate this, Grace. It makes the whole effort worth it and encourages me to write more pieces like this.
Garrett, what a great ride you just took us on. Random comment: I loved “NoFo”!
Thank you, James! That was one of my favorite lines too.
This was great. And makes me want to try out KC barbecue quite seriously.
Hey Justin, thank you! Kansas City Joe’s will freeze and ship BBQ anywhere in the country. I’d highly recommend it.
