Celebrity Royals fans appreciate the best season in KC in 29 years
The Kansas City Royals might not be the Yankees or Dodgers in terms of their celebrity fans, but they have their share, including actors Paul Rudd and Jason Sudeikis, both of whom grew up in the KC suburbs.
Alas, neither tweets, but a few of their celebrity brethren who claim the Royals as their team shared their thoughts on Twitter following the team's Game 7 loss to San Francisco.
Eric Stonestreet of "Modern Family":
The @Royals may have lost, but this team and that city is all winner. Thanks for a GREAT post season. Congrats Giants and GO @KCChiefs!!!!

Comedian Rob Riggle:

Before the game ended, Riggle was none too keen on the FOX announcers fawning over Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner:
David Koechner -- Champ Kind ("Whammy!") of the "Anchorman" films:
Great Season @Royals down to the wire. Wild Card Team! Congrats @SFGiants

Nelly (he's from St. Louis and favors the Cardinals, but hey, it's a Missouri thing):
Former Mizzou and NBA star Jon Sundvold:
"Let's Go Royals" chants still going on behind Erin's interviews. What a great sound!! Great year by the boys in blue!! #BeRoyal #HOLLA

Obviously, the Giants have their supporters as well, including one Super Bowl-winning coach:
So fired up to be a lifelong @SFGiants fan! Congrats to all!!
