As a baseball fan and more specifically a St. Louis Cardinals fan, seeing an event 108 years in the making is something truly spectacular. Five million people showed up to see it, and hats off to the bad guys because they earned this. The baseball fan in me had fun. However, the Cardinals fan in me hated seeing Ben Zobrist on a double-decker bus, hoisting his MVP trophy high in the air for all to see.
I stood in Grand Park, which is where the parade ended. It is also where the rally and speeches were going to happen, but by the time my friends and I went to see the players’ speeches, it was too crowded for anyone else to attend.
