But I think it's kinda awkward how Omaha people who weren't already fans of the Royals are all of a sudden the biggest fans ever.

I'm pulling for the Royals because I think it'd be neat to see them win. I really don't understand why all of a sudden all of this KC gear is being purchased out of nowhere here.

Me thinks people just want to be fans of winning teams that are nearby....

I've been to some Royals games over the years.

I'm admittedly a fair weather fan though.

At least you have some history with them....

I toured the stadium when I was a yute, but I didn't like it because it wasn't the Twins.

Never been anything but a Royals fan.

Dad is a Dodgers fan, but we'd go to a Royals game once a year back when I was a kid.

I am definitely a fair weather Twins fan.

If they could ever get good again, I'd pay attention. There's just too many games a year for me to follow it, though. When I was a kid I looked at the Twins like they were the Huskers.

Same with the Chiefs. I don't know how I ever actually stopped caring about the Chiefs. The Chiefs literally equaled the Huskers to me until I was about 12 years old.

Off subject, but has there always been an Abelardo's out here on 120th and Fort, @Red_Alert ?

Didn't know there was one on 120th & Fort. :noidea:

I only know of the one north of 90th & Maple.

That's what I thought.

Tonight I wes drivin to HyVee and saw right there on the south side of the road heading East on Fort there is an Abelardo's.

So we swung through and got some burritos.

mmmkay

I don't go by there a lot. I'm usually on Military Rd.

Much closer than 90th and Maple though so that's good. I think I'll over there for a giant steak and egg breakfast burrito in the morn. :hungry:

Someone told me their breakfast burritos are the best.

Never had 'em yet.

How often does a team from middle america make the world series?

Twice now.

Grab on. Baseball's a great game. Don't let anyone tell you you're shitty for not rooting for the Royals until last year - they haven't given you a reason to for three decades, and now they are firing it up for you. Show them you appreciate it.

Fire it up, fuckers, and enjoy.

I'm jealous as hell, so make it worth it.
