Brendan Gaughan / National Anti-Boredom Month

Matt DiBenedetto / National Doghouse Repairs Month
Born July 27, Matt DiBenedetto is known for pulling pranks on his wife, Taylor. It’s no coincidence July is also National Doghouse Repairs Month—Taylor may or may not have left Matt in the doghouse after some of these pranks (though she would have been justified in doing so).

Kyle Larson / Family Reunion Month
Family-oriented driver Kyle Larson’s birthday falls on July 31, during Family Reunion Month. Larson is known to celebrate his victories with his family.
