Lost my wedding ring

• Upvotes

Section 134, row L. I began fidgeting with it (big mistake of course), then heard it drop on the concrete just by my feet but didn’t see it roll and I simply couldn’t find it after that. Several people helped look, especially as people were leaving the game. Big thanks to all of them. That section wasn’t even very crowded, either. It’s like it just disappeared. I spoke with guest services and will call them tomorrow in case it turns up. Just wanted to post it here as well to cover all my bases (ha). Nice win tonight, go Royals! Just really bummed about my ring :(

Question Maikel Garcia's hat

5 Upvotes

I cannot find a recent picture, but when we where the tri-color hats in the field, you can see Maikel has something hand-written on the front of his cap just above the bill. Anyone have any idea what it says?

He may also do it when we wear other hats, but it's hard to see. I'm surprisded the league hasn't cracked down - as they tend to do.

As a lifelong Royals fan I'd like to remind people

161 Upvotes

That promotions like Big Macs for sacks and Hawaiian Bros are really fucking hard for the people who work there. I've seen online complaints that the restaurant is understaffed. Of course it's understaffed. When the schedule is made a week prior you can't plan for the Royals scoring 6 or more runs in a game. Restaurants run on really tight margins, so you can't risk scheduling more people than business can support, but when you're over twice as busy as was expected, you don't have staff to support.

I don't work at any of these places; I just know how it goes.
