ROYALS Fans...

B E L I E V E !

For the first time in 29 years,
the Kansas City ROYALS
are in the World Series!

"We painted our horses ROYAL blue,
because we're ROYALS fans,
and we always have been!
Our horse was featured on television."

Be ROYAL!

I searched for

ROYAL BLUE

and found it everywhere:

from farms to cities...

ROYAL Fans

throughout the Kansas City

(Missouri and Kansas)

metropolitan area show their support.

Jenny Stovall: "I asked my husband, Mark,

to paint this pallet for me."

I found evidence of

TRUE BLUE ROYAL FANS

from rural to urban communities!

It's just FUN to live in

KC ROYALS and KC CHIEFS' territory.

My daughter, Faith,

a.k.a. Bat-Girl,

is not much taller than the LEGO characters

at Crown Center.

The Kansas City Royals celebrate their 42nd season at Kauffman Stadium in 2014. Kauffman has always been one of the crown jewel ballparks of Major League Baseball. Having hosted 72,389,223 fans since 1973, "The K", with its signature look, has proudly stood the test of time.
After years of planning and design, the Royals unveiled an exciting $250 million renovation of a true Kansas City landmark prior to the 2009 season. Visitors enjoy an improved Kauffman Stadium experience with unsurpassed amenities and state-of-the-art technologythat touch each and every fan entering the park.
After debuting the spectacular 84' x 104' Crown Vision HD scoreboard for the 2008 season, the Royals put the finishing touches on one of the most majestic and visually exciting scoreboards in the world with a brand-new interactive crown rising about 40 feet above Crown Vision.
Upon entering through the larger and grander entrances, fans have a chance to explore the stadium via a 360-degree expanded concourse while still keeping tabs on the action on the field.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kauffman_Stadium

Kauffman Stadium (/ˈkɔːfmən/;
nicknamed "The K",
formerly known as Royals Stadium)
is a Major League Baseball stadium
located in Kansas City, Missouri,
and home to the
Kansas City Royals of the American League.

Together with Arrowhead Stadium, home of the National Football League's Kansas City Chiefs, it is a part of the Truman Sports Complex.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kauffman_Stadium
Since July 2, 1993, the venue has been known as Kauffman Stadium
in honor of the Royals' founding owner, Ewing Kauffman.
Kauffman Stadium was built specifically for baseball during an era where building multisport "cookie-cutter" stadiums was commonplace. It is often held up along with Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles as one of the best examples of modernist stadium design.

It is the only ballpark in the American League to currently be named
after a person, Ewing Kauffman.
It is also one of ten stadiums in Major League Baseball that does not have a corporate-sponsored name; the others are: Marlins Park, Turner Field, Yankee Stadium, Fenway Park, Wrigley Field, Oriole Park at Camden Yards, Dodger Stadium, Angel Stadium of Anaheim, and Nationals Park. (Kauffman, Wrigley, and Turner are named for the individuals and not the corporations they owned.)

The stadium is 41 years old, making it the sixth-oldest stadium in Major League Baseball.
Kauffman Stadium recently underwent a $250 million renovation,
which began after the 2007 season and was completed in July 2009.^[8]
