Kansas City Royals. The crack of the bat signals springtime in Kansas City when Major League Baseball’s hard-hitting Kansas City Royals open the season at Kauffman Stadium, one of the game's most beautiful ballparks. Opened in 1973, "The K” features a 12-story high scoreboard and a 322-foot wide water spectacular. In addition to beautiful ballpark scenery, the stadium hosts special events and promotions all summer long including Fireworks after every Friday night home game. Tickets start at $7 each and can be purchased at Kauffman Stadium by calling 1800-6ROYALS or visiting www.kcroyals.com.

Kansas City Chiefs. The National Football League’s Kansas City Chiefs charge the gridiron at Arrowhead Stadium August through January. During football season, the stadium parking lot transforms into the world's largest tailgate party - complete with tasty Kansas City barbecue. The stadium and fans - a red sea of 80,000 loyal spectators - have produced a distinct home-field advantage for the Chiefs. Since 1992, no NFL team has had a better regular season home-winning percentage than Kansas City. Visit www.kcchiefs.com.

Kansas City Wizards. With a roster full of some the top players in Major League Soccer, the Kansas City Wizards round the bases at Arrowhead Stadium from April through September. The team advanced to the postseason four consecutive years after winning their first MLS Championship Cup in 2000. The Kansas City Wizards nearly reached the MLS Cup again in 2003 and in 2004 the Wizards accomplished one of U.S. Soccer's most coveted goals, claiming the 2004 U.S. Open. Visit www.kcwizards.com.

Sprint Center. Kansas City's sports landscape will change dramatically in October 2007 with the opening of Sprint Center on the eastern edge of Kansas City’s new entertainment district. The state-of-the-art 18,500-seat downtown arena will host major sporting events, concerts and the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame.  [Top]
