Entry 462: Royals Caravan

Every January the Kansas City Royals visit some smaller cities to keep convincing these cities to keep rooting for the Royals. Last year the weather was bad, so we couldn't make the trip. This year, however, the weather was beautiful so we got in the car and made our way up to Cameron to get some autographs and meet some players. We got there about an hour early and there weren't very many people there, so we were towards the front of the line. This years Caravan consisted of John Mayberry, Billy Butler, Greg Holland, Danny Duffy, and of course Slugerrr. We had met Billy Butler before and were excited to see him again because he seemed like a real nice guy. Lance was really excited about meeting Greg Holland and Danny Duffy though because they are a big part of the Royals youth movement and should be with the team for many many years. In the end we got the following things autographed: Billy Butler signed a Butler shersey and his rookie card, Greg Holland and Danny Duffy personalized a baseball for us and signed a bat, and John Mayberry personalized a baseball for us also. We both love doing things like this and are really excited for the season to start.
