Hello Royals Fan! Tell Me About the Sept 1985 Version of you.
Poll forthcoming....

I was born in Topeka but my family moved to southwest Oklahoma when I was 6 years old. Had I never returned to Kansas/Missouri, Its doubtful I would be a Royals (or Chiefs) fan. Neither one of my parents were fans of KC sports teams. In the late summer of 1985 my father enrolled me in Wentworth Military Academy in Lexington, MO. At the time, I was 13 years old and had braces on my teeth and had to be taken to KC for orthodontics work. From Lexington we had to take I 70 into town. One of my favorite things to see on the trip was the Truman Sports Complex. It made quite an impression on me as a young man from a small town in Oklahoma. I was inspired by the size and design of the stadium and the way it opened up to the freeway.

Those trips alone were enough to make me want to support the teams that called those stadiums home. I was not a major league baseball fan at the time, so I didn't know that '85 would be a big year for the Royals. I do remember one night my father picked me up from campus ad we drove into town and as we passed the Royals stadium and he said that the World Series was being played there. Looking back, I can safely assume it was a Saturday game (Game 1 or Game 6). What's really strange is, even though many of my fellow cadets were from KC and we had a TV in the barracks, I have no recollection of seeing a WS game on TV.

Anywho, because of a year at a Missouri military school and the need for orthodontia, I'm a Royals fan.

I remember watching that Youtube video of game 7 of the Royals/Cards WS. I was thinking to myself, "this is the last time the Royals were truly good".

After the Royals won Game 7, I got busted by the RA's for stealing toilet paper from the dorm bathroom so I could TP the campus trees.

Through the years I drank a shit-ton of beer in my dorm and once set off some firecrackers in the middle of the night on the floor above, but the only thing I got written up for was stealing two rolls of toilet paper to celebrate the World Series. I'm sure they were Cardinal fans.

I was one month old. My mom told me that when the WS was on TV, my dad would take care of me while she went to bed early. So I suppose I did watch the games!

That's very cool. I remember after Motley hit his homer and the Royals just started to roll, the wheels fell off the Cards, and their fans all started leaving. It was a thing of beauty.

What company were you in ? I knew a few delta dawgs who went there. Not the same time frame as you though.

I was 15 months old and have zero memory of it. This is the first time in my adult life the royals are relevant this late in the season. Im not sure howbto react to it.
