Chow down: 2014 World Series champion Giants send Royals, staffers congratulatory pizzas
On Monday, the Giants put in the call to K.C. pizza joint Minsky's while the Royals were making preparations for Tuesday's parade in Kansas City:
The note on one of the pizzas reads, "Have fun planning the parade -- and enjoy the ride!"
Congrats @Royals ? @MinskysPizza for the new World Champs ? https://t.co/molQiqef8c #SFGiants pic.twitter.com/qSeSnZTtZ0

You stay classy, San Francisco. Hungry Royals staff members got to dive into the pizzas first as the team had yet to arrive home from New York.
According to Andrew Baggarly of the San Jose Mercury News, the 2013 World Series champion Boston Red Sox actually started the tradition in 2014 with a pizza delivery to Giants employees at AT&T Park.
“We can’t take credit for this, but we’re happy to continue it,” Giants vice president Staci Slaughter said.
