Chad Morrissey has experienced it all as a Royals fan! From being a kid as his parents went out to watch the Royals in the World Series, to being a long-suffering fan in one of the one of the longest postseason droughts during baseball's current wild-card era, Chad has seen it all!

Hear him describe his joy as that play-off drought finally ended in the hot-streak of 2014, to his jubilation at being crowned World Champions the following year - and how he is still having plenty of fun taking his kids now and his enthusiasm and optimisim for the current team.
