My mom and him were already Royals fans and always brought me down to the K for games when I was younger. Watched Dye and Sweeney play. What an experience! They also brought me down to a couple Chiefs training camps... Of course I was too young to really know who was a player. My dad says I went up to a tall black janitor and asked for a autograph (I didn't know better!)..
Just went to my second Chiefs game at Arrowhead last November (terrible dolphins game) for my b-day! We plan on going to more next year and go to some Royals games this year.
There is my fan experience!!! |
I was best friends with one of Frank White's sons all through grade school and high school. During one of our basketball games, a little kid walked up to my day (who was talking to Frank) and just stared at him. He asked him if he (my dad) was Frank White, and my dad said yes. The kid looked at him funny and asked, "are you sure? My dad says you're Frank White, but I don't think you are."
It was pretty funny. My dad told him the truth just before signing the autograph.
