Crown town: KC treasures 1st title since '85

"It has been 30 years," said Kevin Dysart of Kansas City. "Ecstatic doesn't even begin to describe how I feel."

Many of those in the crowd at Power & Light had only vague memories of the 1985 World Series win over the Cardinals, or no memories at all.

"I was 7 years old when the Royals last won the World Series," said Anna Hazen of Kansas City. "I kind of lived that through my father, because he was really into watching the Royals.
