Right behind home plate. Total fluke I went too. My neighbor called me Sunday & said she wasn't feeling well enough to go & asked me to take her daughter who's in from out of town. My neighbor is 84 & uses a walker so she had gotten tickets in the ADA section (would have been row 19 - 1 & 2) so they put plush chairs in for us. I got hooked into taking her daughter to the airport on Sat. but it was totally worth it.


17 in a row & Waino's 17th win! It doesn't get much more fun than that!


Did you take I 64 home? There was a semi that wrecked on the IL side where one lane was already closed so there was quite a traffic jam.

I got to exit 24 in 20 minutes. Must have just missed the accident

Easiest exit from Busch after a game ever - Because almost no one else left at the end of the game.
