Cardinal Winter Warm Up


We were all getting giddy waiting for the weekend to arrive...because the Winter Warm Up was starting but especially because my son was coming home for the event. He bought us the tickets for part of our Christmas gifts and this meant another reason to spend time together.
My son is great at planning these events for us, he figures who is in what line at what time.
Our success at this three day event brought us 283 autographs of past, present and a few future Cardinals. Just to give you a heads up, we did not pay for the enormous amounts the Cards put on popular Cardinal players (ie:$175. for Pujols) nine tenths of our autographs were free or a few for $5. Lil Orchid was in Baseball Heaven for the interaction she got with FredBird and getting high lighted on the big screen
.
We met the player who hit the Last RBI for the STL Browns.
We met a lot of All Stars and players from several World Series Wins.
We have Bats, Baseballs, Baseball cards, 8x10's and Cardinal signs all autographed .
What a memorable Weekend!
