Game 2

Amazing. Game was exciting right to the end. Seats were better. Crowd was awesome. Food was better in this more private area of the stands. (yes, took a picture of brisket sandwich. You know me...)

What a great time. Seemed like the game went by way too fast. Neither dad nor I wanted to game to end and we didn't want to leave when it was over. All told, just a GREAT night at the ballpark!

Tours, tours and more tours

Toured the Anheuser Bush compound yesterday - amazing to see the scale on which they make beer.

Toured to historic courthouse in downtown St. Louis today - was definitely worth the time.

Leaving now for a tour of Busch Stadium - we didn't even know tours were available for this week until we just happened upon it.

What a great "bonus day"!

Pujols

I just love that name. Pujols. Pu-jols.

World Series 2.0

Game 2. Great vibe here in the city. Or maybe it's buzz from free Stellas at Anheuser Busch tour which was awesome.

5-10 degrees warmer tonight. Sunny and dry. Less windy. Wearing more layers. Better seats. (second level behind home plate section 249).

Having a great time. It kind of hit dad and I standing in line - the surrealness of it - as in "Holy crap, we're going to game 2 of the World Series". This is amazing. Soooooo glad we did it. A story for a lifetime.

Cheers!

St. Louis and baseball

On a positive note, this really is a great baseball town. Everyone is talking baseball. The city is living for it right now. Every store clerk, waiter, bellhop, etc. is wearing Cards red or at least talking about the World Series. Starting mid afternoon the whole downtown is consumed by fans/parties/music/beer and baseball. Lots of fun to be around it!
