Go Cards!

Although St Louis has a number of professional sports teams (The Rams - American Football & The Blues - Ice Hockey), St Louis is really a baseball city. I arrived just in time last year to see the old Busch Stadium being demolished to make way for the new state of the art Stadium which is know as the home of 'Baseball Heaven'.

As this year is the inaugral season at the new stadium every game is pretty much a sell-out. However, Mark Beumer (my line manager at work) had a spare ticket & very kindly invited me to watch my first baseball game - Thanks Mark!

We had excellent seats in the lowest level of the stadium that were really close to home base. This gave us a great view of the game & the Cards won, hurrah!
