How would you celebrate signing a $215 million contract?

Go on a massive shopping spree that may or may not include the purchase of a boat?

Get some tables at a hip club with bottle service?

Make an excursion to Vegas for some gambling and more?

Take off to an exotic island and hit the beach?

If you're Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw, you pass on all these options and go for something a little simpler.

"Had some buddies over, played some ping pong, and grilled out." -@ClaytonKersh22 on how he celebrated his extension. Of course.
