Since it's All-Star Game Weekend in St Louis, and I'm still waiting on the Mark Twain Cave pictures, I thought I'd dig into the archives this week.
I'd been sitting on this pile of photos because I generally only post places that you can visit, and THIS Cardinals Hall of Fame no longer exists. It was in the same building as the International Bowling Hall of Fame, and when they moved to Texas, the Cardinals Hall of Fame went into storage.
Quite honestly, I forgot to post it last year. According to the Cardinals website, all this memorabilia is waiting for a new Hall of Fame to be built as part of Ballpark Village.
The St Louisans out there are snickering right now, because most people hardly believe this mythical "Ballpark Village" will ever happen. The future site was a giant hole in the ground until the powers that be decided it make it look nice for All Star Weekend by turning it into a softball field and parking lot.
I heard that some of this stuff is down at All-Star FanFest, but I don't know what or how much, so I decided I would be providing a public service by creating a virtual Cardinals Hall of Fame for All Star Weekend.
Unfortunately it's hardly a fitting tribute to the lost museum, as I'd only had my camera for about a month and clearly had not yet figured out how to take pictures in a museum.
On the other hand, this may be the only way you'll ever see this stuff, so I guess beggars can't be choosers, eh?
Kirk and Kate approve.
Really nice post
ReplyDeleteThe article explains why Pete Rose was banned from baseball which resulted in his exclusion from the hall of fame. It is an argument in favor of his inclusion based on his on-field accomplishments.
ReplyDeleteBarry Bonds wants to boycott the Baseball Hall of Fame over their use of his record-breaking home run ball. My feeling is that he needs to boycott the Hall and refuse entry. If he doesn't, I will.

ReplyDeleteField of Dreams, although I really never quite understood it, was a movie based on the dreams of becoming a baseball player and being able to enjoy playing the game forever, never growing too old or too tired to play, as Ernie Banks said, "Let's play two." referring to playing a double header instead of a single ball game.

ReplyDeletePlayers can opt in for the Ante wager function, 1xbet although this will lower the RTP. Triple Juicy Drops is the latest slot on the record, designed by Betsoft. It comes with a 5×5 collapsing grid and it has a high volatility.
