The best thing to come out of stl is toasted ravioli, The Urge, and Aaron Kamm & the One Drops. Besides that I really cant stand stl.

stl is very eastern
KC is very western

I wouldn't agree with the fact that KC has short-man syndrome to stl. They are equal in size and I can't think of anyone in KC who envy's stl in any way.
However stl does have short-man syndrome to Chicago. Watching that dynamic here in CoMO is quite possibly one of the best things ever. If you've never seen a group of Blackhawk fratties and Blues fratties going at it then you're missing out. Pure comedy.

I grew up in the KC metro and went to Columbia for college. I'm now in SWMO and I have friends and family in STL. I'm not aware of any rivalry (one-sided or otherwise) between KC and STL. STL was never even on my radar when I lived in KC. Except for a few Cards fans who can't forget a certain call at first base, there's no animosity. Both are decent if you like cities.

Interestingly, Springfield is a Cardinals and Chiefs town.

Don't forget about Ted Drewes.

There are a million more people in St. Louis metro than KC metro.

The cities, excluding the metro, are equal in size only because in 1948, the City of St. Louis made a bonehead decision to never expand it's boundries past River Des Peres.

KC geographically is more than twice the size of St. Louis. But the metro area has much more people in St. Louis.
