Anyone going to Cards series this weekend?

[radarluv1]

I'm going tomorrow. It sure would've been easier with a W today and with the Cards not in first place. Hopefully we can get a series win and the cards remember that they suck.

[chuckywang]

Stay safe, man. Let us know if you get back alright.

[Flames24Rulz]

I'll be there on Saturday.

I've got loge boxes for Friday and bleachers for Sunday. Hopefully I'll get to see at least one win with OPR and Marqueef going those days. Not that Lilly is much better right now.

[Mizzou]

I'll be there tomorrow night and possibly Saturday as well.

I will be there Friday night and Sunday night. Landed box seats 2nd row behind cubs dugout through work. Last time I sat there, all I heard was those friggin cardinal fans going on and on. At least until Daryle Ward won it for the Cubs late. They sure shut up quick when those cardinals lose.

 

Anybody want to hookup to shoot cubs bull. I will be the clown with the NOMAR home jersey on behind the dugout tomorrow night!

I have literally been dreaming of the next time I can see the cubs. Ideally it would be in Wrigley, but economically it will probably be in Washington. I have made a promise to myself to make it to Wrigley within by the end of next baseball season. I cordially invite any of you to give me a swift kick in the nuts if not.

I'll be there Saturday and Sunday. Does anybody want to meet up before the game Saturday?

Anyone doing the First Pitch tickets? I am thinking about doing it Saturday but didn't know how early before the window opens at 9 I should get there to be one of the first 275 people.

Driving down this afternoon. Going to Saturday and Sunday's games.

 

I worked down in St. Louis for a while: if you have any questions I can help.

I've never tried that. Have you had any success doing it?

Done it a few times. Works good because you usually end up sitting in the visiting team's comp tickets they give back. Mostly sections 155 and 156 but way towards the back. Not the greatest seats: but for $11 a pair they kick ass.

What time would you need to be down there to get a shot at a couple of seats?

Cubs/Cards weekend day game? I would guess 8am but don't hold me to that. Weekday games not against the Cubs I've rolled up at 8:55am and gotten the ticket vouchers.

 

Just remember: it's only two seats. The person getting the voucher must be the main person entering the park. At gametime you line up by the left field bleechers gate. As you enter show your ID and the voucher with your guest right behind you. After you go through the turnstiles they'll hand you a sealed envelope. Open the envelope and see where you are sitting.

 

I'm about to leave for St. Louis. Go Cubs!

[VGLOHAUS]

I'm going down for Saturday and Sunday's games. I'd be willing to meet up with anyone. This will be my first trip down there so let me know some cool places to hang out and I iwll be there. Saturday I will be in my Cuck the Fardinals shirt(yes I know very classy) and Sunday I will be n my home DLee jersey. Let me know if anyone is up for meeting and where.

[Butterscup1679666578]

I'll be there tomorrow, restraining myself from throwing things at Ankiel.

[kujay]

In my several years of going to Cubs-Cards games at Busch (old and new), I've never seen as many Cub fans than yesterday. Great atmosphere, and of course we had a lot to cheer about.

 

I'm heading back down there tonight...I expect fewer in blue because of the late start time...time to light up Wellemeyer.

[mjohnson71]

Had a good time down in St. Louis this weekend. Avoided the drama of previous trips where Cards AND Cubs fans had to act stupid. Everyone was pretty mellow this weekend and we had a good time.

 

The Good:

-weather on Sunday

-Missouri Botanical Garden is top notch

-Cubs and Cards fans having a good time

-pizza at a place called Farraros

-the improvements in the city of St. Louis as downtown and other areas get better

-knowing I coming back to Chicago and how much better our sity is than others

-having a place to crash for free

 

The Bad

-gas prices

-the empty hole next to Busch Stadium

-gas prices

-the dumpy parts of St. Louis

-gas prices

-"The Best Fans in Baseball"

-gas prices

-loosing two out of three
