Children's Mercy Park

Reviewed By mattmX4628UL

The two previous games we attended were live action in person, and Sporting won both times. This time was a little different, but still enjoyable. As an affiliate of the MLS team, we were in town for an All-Star weekend and allowed to watch the team's season opener (which was actually in NY) in the stadium on the big screen. The drum team was not present (which would normally create a lot of enthusiasm in the fans) but it was still a fun time. It was actually kind of nice not having the big crowd this time. Kansas City is now 3-0 in the three games we have attended.

Kansas Speedway

Reviewed By jeanisek

I have always wanted to go to an actual Nascar Race and this is the place to go! As big as this place is, it is very organized and so many volunteers to keep everyone informed. Lots of places to choose from to eat, a little pricey but aren't all events like this? You are allowed a small cooler, size allowed is on the website. We chose to go to the concert before the race and saw Sister Hazel, that was awesome, walked around the cars, signed the start/finish line, took a tour around the garages where the racers were getting ready and met so many nice people!!!! This was an event I am happy to check off my bucket list and will possibly be back again!!!! Lots of fun!!!

Strawberry Hill Museum & Cultural Center

Reviewed By MllePoupee - Indianapolis, United States

I am from Kansas City and had never been to Strawberry Hill! I’m home for Christmas and so my mom and I decided to go visit the museum and check out the tea room as we’ve heard folks say visiting at Christmas is a must. It was beautiful! The Christmas decorations are stunning and tend to compliment or amplify the beauty of the home. Seeing the various rooms related to the different ethnic/cultural groups of Strawberry Hill and learning about the orphanage history was also fascinating. Tasting teas and treats in the tea room made for a lovely end to the visit. We were very glad we went and will definitely recommend it to fellow Kansas Citians!
