BRC,
What a great story.....
Your luck with the rainout was almost my misery. I had bought Game 5 tickets figuring at worst it would be the last home game at Busch.....
Thursday night was great, but there was part of me that just felt I had to go down on Friday night just to be around the action. It turned out to be my lucky night when I ran into a guy down by the Westin in the middle of the 1st who had a single he had to get rid of or his girl was going to divorce him. $50 over face value later, I had a seat 5 rows off the field in the left field corner.
Stayed until about 12:30am....left just after Weaver took his victory lap.
I'm just glad I was there to be a part of it, it must have been even more special for you to share it with your son......
Here's video I took of the final out......for Hamas, Frazod, and any other Cards fan.
