Matt scored us some great Cardinals tickets for this past weekend against the Giants. One of the local banks in town has season tickets in two great locations at the ballpark and my sweet boy got us some! So, we headed to the STL yesterday with Matt's sister, Marissa and her husband, Matt (yes...two Matts make it confusing!). The bank also gave us tickets to a Founders Appreciation Day event at the stadium for all founding donors. They had free food plus we had a chance to get autographs from alumni players as well as current Cards. Well, we were a little disappointed with the current players signing....mostly bullpen players who we have not been too happy with all season. But it was still pretty neat to see everyone out and about in their Cardinal red and the kids lining up to get their baseballs signed....so cute :) After we enjoyed our tasty ballpark food of hotdogs and nachos, we did get to go down on the field around the warning track, as well as go down in the dugout to take pictures. We contemplated leaving LaRussa some notes on a few things, but we were shot down by one of the event staff members..oh well. All together it was a fun day. We had awesome seats, just a few rows behind the visitors dugout so we got to see all of the Giants players as well as a great view of third base and home plate. Plus, I finally hunted down an Adam Wainwright t-shirt at the mall.....his shirts are selling out fast due to his CY Young award contention!!! Got my shirt and we got a win (finally!), so all is good in my world:) Here are a few pictures....
