Been fortunate to attend at least one game in each Series the Cardinals have been in since 1964 with the exception of 2013, but my biggest thrill was being at game six in 2011 with one of my sons. My view is it was one of the top 5 world series games of all time

Yeah I bought the tickets the day of the game at face value because the rain out made game 5 a non clincher so the seller didn't care about going. Yet it is a nice conversation piece because I have game 5 tickets, but went to game 4. Then in 2011 the game 6 was rained out, but they had learned from their mistake in 2006 and moved both games instead of doing the switch-a-roo they had done in 2006. That game 6 was stressful, since I had sold my guaranteed game 1 tickets to chance a game 7. My wife still teases me about pacing the house watching it on TV.
