KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- A brawl erupted in the playground area of Kaufmann Stadium on Sunday, ending with two arrests and several frightened kids.
foursome began shouting and cursing at each other and then began exchanging blows. One woman was knocked to the ground, where the other woman began kicking her, according to the police report."We peek around the corner expecting to see kids fighting, but it's four adults right on the playground," said Laura Phipps, who witnessed the fight.Phipps said the fight was going on while her daughter was coming down the slide."The fight was at the bottom of the slide. She set her feet down to see a gentleman take a head and bang it against the concrete," Phipps told KMBC's Dan Weinbaum.Phipps said her daughter was knocked down during the melee."It was beyond a brawl. It started out as four people, and then as kids were getting toppled, those parents came in, the women were fighting," Phipps said. "The saddest scene was a girl wrapped around mom's waist and saying, 'Please don't,' and she's throwing punches."An off-duty police officer broke up the fight and took a man and a woman into custody.Phipps said it took about 10 minutes before security arrived. The Royals told KMBC it was only 5 minutes.The Royals said it was an unfortunate incident and they wish it hadn't happened.

I think those that weren't at the game thought we were insane for screaming every time that damn thing came on television Friday night.
Neil and I had to explain it to our table. They still didn't think it was all that funny.

the original plan was that john and i were going to ride the carousel that night, just for the hell of it, but then when we noticed the bat shaped seat that looked like a "wiener" we decided against it since there were only little kids riding the carousel, and i really didnt want pictures of me riding the bat up on the forum before i even really start posting on it
