We attended a game of St. Louis Cardinals vs Chicago Cubs, playing at the Cardinals’ ballpark, Busch Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri.

Cubs won—hitting six home runs, but we only saw the first two. The temperature was 93, but the humidity was worse. Our seats were in the sun, so we only lasted a few innings. Tried standing at the top of the section with shade and a nice breeze, but it was still too uncomfortable. There were probably as many Cubs fans as Cardinals. A pretty ballpark—it would have been nice to hang out and enjoy the game, alas. The view of the Gateway Arch is a nice touch.

Our seats were in the sun on a really hot day, so we moved to stand in the concourse:

Then we left early. It was just too hot, and we didn’t particularly care about either of the teams playing.
