Royals 2009 Kansas City Royals Repository. - Page 4

All Royals All The Time!

After consultation with others who peruse the game threads we decided to create this as a repository for all things Royals. Minor league news, AL (ahem) Central (thanks Vonne) news and anything Royals can be found here.

alnorth will continue the game threads as usual. But if you locate something of interest.. ANYTHING.. deals on apparel, best ways in/out of the stadium, giveaways, great stories from this season or from seasons gone by, rumors, trades, anything.... feel free to post it here.

If a big story breaks, you can still start a thread about it. There is merely an all inclusive thread that will make a easy for us all to keep up with all things Royals.

Welcome! "Grab a Brew... don't cost nuthin"...[spills beer on feet]

As soon as the last pitch was thrown, it went back to "normal" bar type volume.

I think in seasons past, it was a lot different. If there was a game on in the background, most people wouldn't pay much attention. I can't wait to see what happens to this town if they actually do make a playoff run. I know it's early, but we've suffered long enough dammit.

Or else, I could have just imagined it all, who knows.

Haha, we were at a Jazz bar on Saturday. They had on their website that they play all Royals games, so we figured we'd go catch the end there. They had the damn Celtics game on so we made them change it. There ended up being a huge crowd around watching the game and when we finally got the run in to make it 8-7 the place erupted with applause. The band thought everyone was cheering for them for some reason. We figured more people had caught Royals Fever at that point than the Swine Flu

Butler has been playing pretty damn well at first. He is no gold glove; but as long as he keeps heating up at the plate we don't need him to be a gold glove.

Has anyone bought seats in the Dri-Duck outfield section? I want to get 4 for tonight and they go on sale at the stadium at 10:00 AM. Just wondering how early I need to get there to make sure I get some before they sell out?

I'd be willing to bet Hochevar will be called up to pitch in the 4 game series with the Orioles at the K

I think the throw also glanced off the runners leg before Butler had a chance to make the catch.

I got some bad info from the ticket office yesterday. The Dri-Duck seats don't go on sale until 4:30 the day of the game. I did score some seats in the front row of section 105, overlooking the visitor bullpen. So we'll be out there tonight rooting for another victory for Zack and the Royals!

Yea, I think those tickets are strictly walk-up. And you don't want to be there on a cooler evening.

I would imagine you need to be in line by 3:00 or so to get those seats.

How is the view from there?

**Kyle DeLexus** · 05-04-2009, 09:41 AM

I'll be there also. We are going for the $5 seats tonight since it was an impulse game.

**DeezNutz** · 05-04-2009, 09:41 AM

May 23rd. Is this the magical date for Hochevar's return so that the Royals can further control his FA years?

Caller on 810 claims this is the date.
