Not eye appealing, and yes my wife totally agrees.And I am not talking about ballpark village .But everywhere else around the stadium. And I am hearing this from people who I know that travel here to go to cardinal games.

All you have to do is look around down there to see it.

You do understand that the cardinals get the majority of your ticket cost?

I firmly believe that we find what we are looking for. If I'm looking for trash and crime, guess what I'm going to find? If I'm looking for fun baseball experience, a nice meal, and a good time with family and friends, guess what I am going to find?

Based on KK's two recent threads started, it sounds like he needs a new team.

Yes…..he is often very critical of the club….justifiably so…and wants dramatic change…..yet he attends games…

I struggle finding the logic in that…

That sounds good but your telling me the area is safe enough around the stadium that you would send your spouse or kid to go get something in the car yall forgot by their self. There is not enough police or security around the stadium period. That’s the cities fault and ownership for not putting pressure on the city to make it happen.Same thing with all the garbage.

A lot of fans have left or are leaving. I'm sure that you are not alone in your opinions. I hope that the city and the Cards can earn back your support.

Never felt unsafe going to a Cardinal game. If you want me to escort you sometime I’m happy to talk you through it.

Also, I’m not sending my wife or kid to get something forgotten in the car alone at any stadium. That’s a weird statement.

Seriously. Someone needs a lesson in gentlemanly behavior if you're sending your wife to grab something out of the car.

I'll say this again: the parking garage is across the street from the stadium. You park there with tens of thousands of other people, walk across a street with tens of thousands of other people and go inside. What people are really saying is:
1. I don't like to see a homeless/poor person. They don't look like me.
2. I can't save $10 by parking at Laclede's Landing and walk across the Arch grounds at 10 p.m.
3. They won't let me bring muh gun inside.
