CRAWLING TIGERS, FLYING CARDINALS

Congratulations to the St. Louis Cardinals on winning the 2006 World Series Championship.

The Flying St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Crawling Detroit Tigers tonight in Game 5 at Busch Stadium. Wednesday night, after waited for almost two hours for Game 4 to start, the people had to go home because the game was cancelled due to heavy rain. These ticket holders must be so happy and forgot the suffering on Wednesday night because they were able to celebrated tonight when the Cardinals won the deciding game.

The St. Louis Cardinals became only the second team that won World Series title in the new stadium. The New York Yankees is the only other team.

I feel sorry for the City of Detroit for the loss of revenue that would have generated if there were Game 6 and Game 7. According to a report in St. Louis Post Dispatch, the City of St. Louis enjoyed an estimate of 35 millions of revenue from the three World Series games played in St. Louis. I am sure more money will be spent from fans who are willing to spend money on merchandise and tickets for next season.

Here is to the St. Louis Cardinals - It is a winner!
