Last year we went on a 6 day trip that took us to Kansas City, St. Louis and then Nashville to watch Yo throw 8 strikeout 11 and allow 1 hit in 8. Kansas City was horrible, going out downtown was decent and the barbecue was great. The best part of Kansas City was the radio, we were driving into town the day Billy Butler got called up and they had basically 2 hours of coverage for a prospect being called up. They even covered the press conference. It made me wish we had that type of coverage up here. We had to ask 10 people just to get directions to the stadium not even the hotel employees knew. No one pays attention to sports there. To me St. Louis was awesome, we had such a great time we are going back for 4 days this summer and skipping other cities. It is a beer drinking baseball town, just like Milwaukee. We stayed downtown 3 blocks from the stadium so we didn't need a car for 2 days. They have open bar pavillions for only game days that replace the tailgating. It is different but there is probably 8 open bars within a block of the stadium that get crowded. We were there for the first game after Josh Hancock passed away. We also had a great time at the landing and we found a place that serves chili on eggs for breakfast. Nashville obviously the stadium sucks and it was 90 degrees out. We were so tired and tried to cancel this leg of the trip but the hotel was already paid for; so we went and suffered through it. This was when Braun was hurt, but we got to see Yo throw a gem.
