“My favorite spirit day out of this week is probably Jersey Day because it isn’t too complicating like Meme Day is because that involves a lot of planning and thinking in your outfit,” Pruett said. “For Jersey Day, you can just throw on a jersey and rep some baseball.” “I think dressing up is important because it is important to get into the spirit for Riley week. It is leading up to a good time.”
