Where is the highest location in the 314 for Cards fan base
West suburbs? What makes it easy and safe to attend

Re: Would the cardinals ever leave downtown for a new stadium?
why would they stay?
it's an older stadium that does not have some things the newer parks offer.....most prominently a retractable roof and A C
those who attend pay an "entertainment tax" to the city on every ticket
there is a city earnings tax that every player...including visitors must pay
there are parking issues
and there are safety concerns
a new stadium in an adjacent county can address those issues

They should name the new stadium Albert Pujols Stadium and put it on Yadier Molina way. Near Festus.

New stadiums usually have a corporate sponsor name, or some inclusion of local government..MIDMOBIRDTWO wrote: ↑31 Jul 2026 10:00 am They should name the new stadium Albert Pujols Stadium and put it on Yadier Molina way. Near Festus.
But naming infrastructure after prominent players is a good call…
We were just in Arlington and drove to the stadium on Nolan Ryan Parkway…

Well…..that could hurt concession sales….
but it could be a complex with recognition of cards history surrounding the park…
Instead of an outdated stadium in a war zone they have now,,

Disappointing that you have stooped to name calling…
Nevertheless, your attachment and fascination with the city is challenging to understand……..and more than a little troubling..

I would gladly endorse the old schmuck for one of those silly red jackets if it would help get the club out of the city…MIDMOBIRDTWO wrote: ↑31 Jul 2026 10:32 amGrannie love Yadi.

Create an OP about moving the STL stadium, and 45 is all over it with reply after reply.
"Yep! Let's go west! So dangerous! And taxes! boo hoo! I'm scared!"

No, they shouldn't.
...this stadium is fine.
...but the city is a real armpit.
