After an hour and a half drive into St. Louis we got to the stadium. It is amazing. The parking is right there, people are so friendly and we were able to find our seats with assistance from the guides. The seats were fabulous. We were just to the right of home plate up on the top deck with an incredible view of the whole field and the Gateway Arch. Later in the game when Albert Pujols went deep the fireworks sounded like they were right in my ear. During the National Anthem the concession stands were quiet as were everyone in the building. Never have I seen such respect for the song, except in church maybe.
The Cards ended up beating the D'backs and knocking them out of contention for a playoff spot, so that was kind of rewarding. My team isn't in the playoffs, so neither is yours! After a quick jaunt around the building to the car it was time for the ride back to the hotel. We decided to stay an extra night in FLW since Matt had come up from Texas.
