My wife and I were merely acquaintances in 2006 when I asked a group question if anyone would like to go to the Cardinals NLCS game with me since I had an extra ticket. My now wife said she would like to go. After that she and I spent the rest of the series together, then watched the World Series games together. Then when I had a chance to go to the World Series I asked if she wanted to go. So we went to game 4 together. After that she and I were always together. So we always say that our relationship started with the 2006 Cardinals Post Season.
We did go to game 7 in 2011. I owned game 1 and game 7 tickets though I couldn't afford both so I sold game 1, convinced they were going to go to game 7.
We celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary this year and the Cardinals are back in. Even if they don't win, it is always a nice remembrance of our beginnings when the Cards make the post season.
