Are any teams or volunteers planning to see the Cardinals during the CMP?
We are planning to go on Friday night.

Are you going with the deal offered to FIRST, which was something like a seat and a hotdog for $19?
We did last year. I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but I'm pretty sure I was looking down at the top of the arch from our seats. The sound of ball-on-bat got to us the following inning.
The wind chill was 50 degrees.

I haven't been to Busch Stadium in a few years, but the last time I went it was about $7 just for the hot dog. A $12 seat in ANY MLB stadium probably won't be that great, but with the Cardinals, a team that has won the World Series 11 times, that's a steal.
If it was 50 degrees Kelvin, you probably wouldn't be posting this, but in April, a 50 degree (Fahrenheit) wind chill is pretty normal for Saint Louis, and not too bad, sounds like great weather to me!

We've gone the bargain route in the past, but this year, going for the Redbird Club, as it has good seats, an indoor area to retreat to should the weather become inclement, and better food (say Cardinals junkies).
YOLO.
It's a great team, a wonderful stadium, Cardinals fans are very knowledgeable, and Midwestern graciousness rules.

A hotdog for 19$? That's outrageous!

It's something like $20 which gives you a seat at the game, a hot dog, and a soda. Not a bad deal, though you won't have a great view.

Reviving the thread.
If anyone is interested, I have one ticket remaining for the game on Friday night.
RedBird club, Section 244 (first two rows, can you say "missed autonomous, I mean, foul balls?) with $12 in "Cardinals Cash" for the overpriced ballpark fare.
Indoor area should the weather be inclement, although right now the forecast says 75 day 51 night, 10% rain.
PM me if interested.

Au Contraire mon amis.
The color would be correct, and St. Louis fans are quite gracious and tolerant of other teams, unless you're a Cubs fan, and except for their two recent World Series losses of 2004 and 2013......oh, wait a minute.....
Hey Dana, what say you wear your Robot Inspector hat? You'll be easier to find in a crowd.
Can I wear my Red Sox hat?
As a native St. Louisan, I say yes:

For those that bought tickets,
please be sure to have the will call option if you cannot print out your tickets.
Otherwise, they will mail it to you. Mailing it to us was the default option per the St. Louis person that I spoke to when I called.
Its a good thing I did because it would have got to me AFTER I leave for St. Louis.
For some reason, they said the FIRST special doesnt have an option to print at home.
Why?!
Can anyone confirm this?

One extra ticket for the game, unless Koko Ed takes it. (He has first dibs)
