A Bad Luck Charm?
So far, the Cardinals have lost five home games. So far, I’ve been at four of them. Perhaps the Cardinals should pay me to stay away at this point. Went to the game Tuesday night with my ever-lovely friend Liz, but we had to leave after seven because I had to bartend. We managed to […]

Thus far, I’ve been to two Cardinals games this spring/summer. Thus far, I’ve been at Busch Stadium a grand total of twelve and a half hours. Thus far, I’ve been to two of the Cardinals’ three home losses. The first game was of course the 20 inning marathon. Still had a great time due to […]
