Scott and Joey Kanz go to St. Louis |
We had watched quite a bit of the game before we felt the hunger attacking us. Luckily there was this giant Hardees sign that guaranteed charbroiled thickburgers were in the vicinity. Kanz bought himself a ginormous burger and went to town on it. |
We happened to come across a couple of Brewers fans and asked them to take our picture. I asked them because they could be trusted. The last thing that I need is for some Cardinal fan to steal my camera. Oh wait, that wouldn't happen because this is St. Louis and not Chicago. I was referring to the idiotic Cubs fans... |
These Milwaukee fans were wearing the retro powder blue road uniforms that I adore but cannot afford. I settled on this knockoff t-shirt. We all figured that we wound stand out amongst the crowd of red and white, but then I remembered that the Cardinals also wore powder blue in the 1980's, so we actually blended in, which was a bad thing. |
I finished my cup of Busch Beer (which was nearly $10) so that I could pour my can of Miller Lie into it so that I could enjoy a real beer. It's too bad that Busch beer sucks, because it gave me a bad beer face. To cure this ailment, I promptly drank my warm can of Miller Lite, which was still 1,000 times better than Busch/Bud beer. |
St. Louis has one of the most informative scoreboards that I have seen. The thing is absolutely huge, and I was delighted to be able to see Bill Hall's smiling face presiding over Busch Stadium. My favorite part was that they included all 3 Brewers logos (current M over the state of Wisconsin, gray Milwaukee road logo, and the ball and glove retro logo.) That was a nice site to see. |
Busch Stadium has to have one of the greatest backdrops amongst all Major League stadiums, with the exception of Pittsburgh's PNC Park. I can't really comment on PNC Park because I have yet to go there, but from what I have heard from friends and Brewers commentators, it is certainly a site to behold. Until I go there, I will still say that the view from my seat was pretty badass. |
We walked around the exterior of Busch Stadium to check out all of the amenities that it had to offer. Now don't get me wrong, I love Miller Park and everything Milwaukee, but Busch Stadium is an excellent shrine to baseball and an amazing place to watch a game. The city of St. Louis has a fabulous baseball history, and it shows in their dedication to building a perfect structure for America's favorite pastime. |
