Alright, let’s talk about this Kauffman Stadium, you know, where them Royals play ball. Folks keep askin’ me about the seats, where the best place to sit is. Well, it ain’t as simple as just plunkin’ yourself down anywhere, I tell ya. There’s all sorts of things to think about, like how much money you wanna spend and what you wanna see.
Now, some folks, they got money to burn. They want them fancy seats, right behind home plate. They call ‘em the BATS and Diamond Club seats. Sounds mighty important, don’t it? Well, they are important if you got a fat wallet. You get a real good view of everything, no doubt about it. But you gonna pay for it, that’s for sure.
Then there’s them field level seats, down by the infield. Sections 118 to 137, they say. Good seats too, real close to the action. But again, they ain’t cheap, especially if the Royals are doin’ good and it’s playoff time. Prices go up higher than a kite, I tell ya.
Me? I ain’t made of money. I gotta be smart about where I sit. Some folks say them Crown Club seats behind home plate are the best, but like I said, them’s for the rich folks. There’s other good seats though, you just gotta look around.
- Think about what you wanna see. You wanna see the whole field? You wanna be close to the batter? You wanna be up high so you can see everything? That’ll help you pick a spot.
- Weekday games are different from weekend games. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, they open the gates earlier, an hour and a half before the game starts. But Monday through Thursday, it’s only an hour. So if you wanna get a good look around and maybe grab a hot dog, you gotta plan ahead.
- Don’t forget about concerts! Kauffman Stadium ain’t just for baseball, you know. They have concerts there too. And the best seats for a concert might be different than the best seats for a game. You gotta think about where the stage is gonna be.
Now, they got this thing called an “interactive seat map.” Sounds fancy, huh? It’s just a picture of the stadium, but you can click on the different sections and see what the view is like. It’s real helpful, let me tell you. You can see if there’s gonna be somethin’ blockin’ your view, like a scoreboard or somethin’. I heard someone complainin’ once, said they could barely see home plate ’cause of that darn scoreboard. See, that’s why you gotta do your homework!
This here seat map, it shows you all sorts of stuff. It tells you where the sections are, what the numbers mean. It’s mighty detailed, they say. You can really zoom in and see what you’re gettin’ yourself into before you buy them tickets. ‘Cause nobody wants to spend their hard-earned money on a seat where you can’t see nothin’, right?
So, if you’re lookin’ for the best seats at Kauffman Stadium, whether it’s for a Royals game or some singin’ and dancin’ show, you gotta do your research. Don’t just buy the first ticket you see. Use that there interactive seat map. Figure out what you wanna see and how much you wanna spend. And for goodness sake, make sure that there ain’t no scoreboard in your way! That’s the best advice I can give ya, and it comes from years of watchin’ folks get bamboozled by fancy ticket talk.
And one more thing, remember to have fun! It don’t matter if you’re sittin’ right behind home plate or way up in the nosebleed seats, it’s about enjoyin’ the game or the music. Don’t let them ticket prices stress you out. Just find a seat you can afford and have a good time. That’s what it’s all about, ain’t it?
