editor's note: the article below is written strictly in lowercase letters as part of the #nocaps movement.

the vegas golden knights are going to the stanley cup and city officials are rallying together to start the #nocaps movement.

you guessed it...no one will be using capitalized letters on social media. grammar police, back away!

“it's no caps for the next two weeks,” said clark county commissioner steve sisolak. “you’ve got the capitals that haven’t been there in two decades and this is our first year and you think back on this – we didn’t even have a team a year ago it’s gone crazy since then.”

the city released a press release saying:

"with our vegas golden knights playing in the stanley cup final starting monday, the community is rallying around the team and showing our support by wearing team colors on “knight up days” and going #nocaps during the championship series (when appropriate). this has been a dream season, and it has been great to see the community come together in support of our home team,” commission chairman steve sisolak said. “since the playoffs began, every game day has been an official ‘knight up day’ in clark county, and now we will also be #nocaps during the championship series. before the first round of the playoffs, the county commissioners declared all golden knights game days “knight up days” throughout the county, and encouraged residents to show their support for the team by wearing golden knights’ jerseys, shirts and other clothing, and displaying golden knights’ banners and flags. now, the community is also encouraged to go #nocaps while the knights play the washington capitals in the championship series. chet buchanan, the host of the chet buchanan show on 98.5 fm kluc, is credited with calling on the community to go #nocaps during this series.

the knights and capitals are scheduled to play monday, may 28, wednesday, may 30, june 2 and june 4; and, if necessary, june 7, june 10 and june 13.
