I think I was able to get my money’s worth of hot dogs, nachos, Budweiser, and Coca-Cola over the course of both days.

I was sitting inside the club to stay out of the cold for as long as possible before the game started, and just happened to get up to throw something away right as Cardinals owner Bill DeWitt walked in the door. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to say “Hey Mr. Dewitt”, and he said hi to me, but didn’t seem interested in any further pleasantries.

As far as the game itself goes, it was a night of firsts for the new Cardinals, but unfortunately not the first win of the season.
