October 18, 200620 yr Selig says St. Louis has good chance to host 2009 All-Star game October 17, 2006 ST. LOUIS (AP) -- The new Busch Stadium is the leading contender to host baseball's All-Star game in 2009. Baseball commissioner Bud Selig, speaking during Game 5 of the NL championship series on Tuesday night, was asked about the likelihood of the All-Star game being played in St. Louis in three years. "I'd say very, very good," Selig said. "I like their chances a lot." The new Busch Stadium opened in April, across the street from the old Busch, which hosted the All-Star game in 1966. The 2007 game is scheduled for July 10 in San Francisco and the 2008 event is likely to be played at New York's Yankee Stadium, which is slated to be in its final season. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=ap-c...p&type=lgns
October 18, 200620 yr That should be an awesome All-Star experience. I wanna visit St. Louis someday. Seems like a nice city. Maybe I'll have the money for it by the time '09 comes around.
October 18, 200620 yr Yeah, St. Louis is a pretty neat place to visit. But damn hot in the dead of summer - not unlike Miami. The arch is amazing - you can actually take an elevator to the top. Like Miami, they drive pretty fast - the difference being that they drive Fords and Chevvys, whereas here we see Beamers & Porches.
October 18, 200620 yr when i went to St Louis in the summer it seemed like a ghost town....idk why.....i remember the new busch was under construction
October 18, 200620 yr Love St. Louis...since its where I saw my team win the National Championship I really like that city, pretty good downtown, and the new stadium is awesome
October 18, 200620 yr Like Miami, they drive pretty fast - the difference being that they drive Fords and Chevvys, whereas here we see Beamers & Porches. I beg to differ!!! :lol
