Ryans Birthday Treat

For Ryan's birthday we bought tickets in the Cardinals Club section of Busch stadium. If you don't know much about the new Busch, they are the green seats right on the field. We got to enjoy a free buffet (FANTASTIC), plus all you can eat and drink all night long! Money well spent. We also got to rub elbows with a few famous people. Here are the pictures.
A view from our seats.
The crazy eagle that almost took my eye out.

The umpires gathering before the game.

Me and Jimmy "the cat" Scates. (an announcer from FSN Midwest)

Ryan talking to "The Cat".

Ryan and I with Jim Rooney. (An announcer for the STL Cardinals) Funny story. Mr. Rooney walked off the field after the game and we stopped him and asked him if he would take our picture. (We had only heard him on the radio, never seen him.) When he said yes we knew immediately who he was and he agreed to have his picture taken with us.

Kinda funny, "The Cat's" face looks like you are like tackling him or something!! You just couldn't contain yourself, huh?

No I couldn't. When I saw this picture I thought the same thing. Ha Ha!

We are going to two Cardinals games this year. Thanks to my job, I have seats that are 7 rows behind home plate and seats that are 20 rows from third base. I love going to Busch Stadium. Glad you had a great time.

Not sure who any of those people are, but it sure looks like a lot of fun!
