Johnson Countians don’t need an official reason to brag on homegrown Hollywood star Jason Sudeikis, but now they have one in Overland Park. The city has declared Monday, Oct. 18, “Jason Sudeikis Day.”  An official proclamation urges residents to “congratulate and celebrate Jason Sudeikis and his many accomplishments.” The city gives a nod to Sudeikis’ incessant citing of his hometown pride in the show. “He brings a slice of home to the show, whether through references to local barbecue joints or his character’s articulate Midwestern persona, based on his high school basketball coach, Donnie Campbell,” the proclamation reads.
