The Royals’ Hot Dog Derby has been a famous, longstanding tradition at Kauffman Stadium. But a U.S. convenience store chain may have given birth to another equally beloved tradition.

The two biggest stories to come out of Saturday's college football Week 1 games involved the LSU Tigers and Michigan Wolverines.
It seems I start all of my weekly posts with some mention of how the St. Louis Cardinals continue to hover around .500 and remain in sniffing distance of the postseason.
