My friend's dad took us to Kansas City, that was his home area. We watched one game in the old municipal stadium, and one in the new stadium (1973). My team was still the Cards, and I bought a Cards pennant at the souvenir shop. The guys at the souvenir shop asked me why I was buying a Cards pennant, and I said "Because I like them"
