Royals FanFest takes place this weekend, January 26-27 at Bartle Hall in downtown Kansas City. The annual event gives fans a chance to gather, meet players, and get energized about the upcoming season. It all starts this Friday at 2 p.m. and lasts until 9 p.m. the first day, with doors open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday. Season ticket holders are given exclusive early access. You can read about Gross(est)’s experience at last year’s FanFest here.
The event may be missing star power, as players like Eric Hosmer, Mike Moustakas, and Lorenzo Cain are still free agents without a team.
