A Ballpark Goes Out in Style
I have only seen three games in my life – all with my Dad, and all at Busch Stadium. Busch was opened 5 months before I was born, and now it’s going to be torn down and replaced by a bigger stadium nearby.
The place is filled with memories for Cardinals fans. Like most, I don’t want to see it go – but go it will, just like old Sportsmen Stadium on Grand Avenue – the very place where the St. Louis Perfectos aka “Cardinals” were born.
But the old ballpark is going out in style. Due to the crushing might of the St. Louis Cardinals team this year, at least 2 playoffs will be held beneath its arches before it is turned into rubble.
Not a bad way to end, if you ask me.
