Royals Stadium was built exclusively for baseball in 1973 as part of
Kansas City's suburban Harry S. Truman sports complex, standing adjacent to Arrowhead Stadium, home of the NFL's Kansas City Chiefs. This differentiation and duplication ran counter to the trend of multipurpose stadiums popular at the time, as did the ballpark's modest seat count of 40,529, which gave it a certain intimacy and made it the smallest permanen Major League stadium built in 80 years.
