Happy Fathers Day, Daddy-O
My sister posted a picture on Facebook this morning. My Dad, Senior Blowfish, passed in 2011 at the age of 82. In 2000 he had to have a stint put in. My sister took this picture the morning he was going in for surgery. He wanted to wear a Chiefs hat for good luck, so my sister (an operating room nurse) made him a Chiefs scrub hat. When he passed in 2011 my sister put his favorite Chiefs socks on him under his suit. Without my Pops, I wouldn't have the seats I have in Arrowhead, or my lifelong love/hate affair with the team. I miss you Pops. Hope all of you who still have your dads in the picture will tell them you love them. Enjoy your time together, because take it from me, it doesn't last forever.

Nice story George. I lost my Dad in 2002. He was 81. You're right, if they're still around, dote on them, and treat them like the treasure they are.

Like you, my Dad and I shared a special bond with our love of the Chiefs and Royals, much more so than my other siblings. I really miss that, but I've made up for it with sharing that love with both of my boys.

Great photo GBlowfish and I am deeply honored to have sat in your Dad's seat at Arrowhead!

He is a good looking guy so I have no idea where you got your looks from!

Good story George. They don't make them like that anymore. He'd have been about my grandpas age and he was a special one. Him and my dad both paved the way for what I'm able to do today.

I'll go harass dad today.

Thanks for he perspective reminder.

He was a multi time Ban Johnson All Star shortstop here in KC. Got an invitation to St. Louis Cardinals spring training, then a week later got drafted for Korea.

Was in the 24th Infantry. Was sent in a week before the Chinese got into the war. Came out with three stripes. Married his best friend's sister (my mom), worked as a union printer for 50 plus years.

Got Chiefs season tickets in 1966. We've had them every year since. He told me when I chose to go to Mizzou it was the happiest I'd ever made him. My sister went to KU just to piss him off. I was the first boy in our family to ever graduate from college.

He was a deacon in the church for 40 years. Liked to fish, liked John Wayne movies, especially westerns. Didn't drink or smoke. Loved ice cream.

He was a great guy. Never heard anyone say a bad word about him, except my mom. That's another story. She's a hard case.

Sorry to hear about your Dad. My parents are up there in age as well. It's getting really rough with their health.
