It's not just the distance. If you have to get in your car and drive, it's a pain in the ass compared with walking across the street. If you can't pre-party at a bar near the stadium, it isn't as fun.
Leave the office at five...game is at seven...what should I do?
Should I go hang out at a bar by the stadium? No, there aren't any. How about a restaurant? No, there aren't any. Maybe I'll do some shopping. No, there isn't any.
Instead, you can either go home for thirty minutes, get back in your car and drive to Raytown and then go right back home or drive twenty more minutes to a bar to post game, or you can go out for drinks, then drive half drunk to the game, have more drinks, drive completely drunk for twenty more minutes to another bar to post game, and then get a DUI on the way home.
Look, I love Royals games. They are boring as ****, though. There is a reason people love going to Cubs games, and it's not because they win. It's because you pre game at Captain Morgan's and postgame at Cubby Bear.
