Why on earth would you want to go to Kansas? Have you no shame? lol Just joshin' ya although I stand with Stormin' Norm Stuart in never spending any money in Kansas even when I visit my sister who lives in Wyandotte.

"I was 32-33 years old, I was just trying to win a damn ballgame, and I wasn't interested in who was getting the bids except for my tennis shoes: My tennis shoes were going to some damned place in Illinois. And I wanted a local guy to have that."

With a laugh, he added: "Now a game comes up, and I'm over at Kansas, and the reporter says, `I noticed you didn't stay in Lawrence, you stayed over in Kansas City.' Well, it popped in my mind what the Lieutenant Governor had told me, and so I said,`Why, hell no, I'm not staying in Lawrence. I'm not spending a damn dime over here. This is Missouri money.'

"You know, hell, it wasn't really true, but it was something you could play on. And if you guys really asked a good question, then I could avoid it."

Not actually true (Except for me not spending my money in KS) but it adds flavor to the "friendly" rivalry of Ks v Mo. When I was a bartender in KC, MO I refused requests to tune the bar t.v.'s to KU bb games by telling them "This is Missouri. Kansas is 6 blocks away. Drag your knuckles there."
