Barstool Goes Full Mom Mode For Mother's Day

TLDR: Mother's Day turned the Barstool timeline into a full-blown tribute reel, with CaptainCons leading the charge and Kayce Smith, ForePlay, and elio rounding out the wave in their own ways.

  1. Kayce Smith took a different angle and went with the honest take that being a mom is the best thing in the world even when it's a chaotic mess. Anyone who has been within 10 feet of a toddler nodded along. It's the kind of post that lands because it isn't trying too hard.

    Being a mom is the best thing in the world. It’s hard, messy and chaotic a lot of the time … but it’s worth every second. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! You are incredible.

    ForePlay kept it on brand and threw the salute to the Golf Moms — the unsung heroes who drove their kids to range sessions at 7 a.m. and still pretended to care about the swing change. And then there was elio, who refused to let the day get too sappy and reminded everyone that his audience of moms is, generously, a half-dozen deep.

    Happy Mother’s Day to the 6 Moms that follow me!!

    That's the whole vibe of Barstool on a holiday like this. Half the roster goes earnest, the other half goes for the bit, and somehow it all works. Cons gets the MVP nod for the day, but the group effort gets the assist. Happy Mother's Day to everyone making it look easy when it isn't.
