Royals starter Danny Duffy ‘stoked’ about new Kansas City animal shelter project

Royals starter Danny Duffy said he was “stoked” after the passage Tuesday of Question 3, a $50 million bond proposal that included $14 million for a new Kansas City animal shelter in Swope Park.

Duffy had campaigned for the project all spring after becoming active with the KC Pet Project in recent years. It passed on Tuesday, along with two other bond questions, as Kansas City voters said yes to a massive, $800 million infrastructure package.

Duffy, an admitted dog lover, said he was happy for his friends at the KC Pet Project, including Tori Fugate, who had facilitated his involvement with the organization.
