Cardinal Games

Over the 2010 MLB season i have been to eight Cardinal games this year. Every game i have gone to i have brought home winners, knock on wood. The first game i went to was May 21st, following June 2nd, June 4th, June 19th, July 17th, July 30th,  August 4th, August 22nd, and then am going to the September 5th game. Hopefully ill continue to bring good luck to the Cardinals and bring back yet another winner. I'd like to keep my undefeated streak going also. Over the course of these eight games I've seen history made and milestones reached by players. The first one that comes to mind is when i saw Cardinals pitcher Brad Penny hit his first career grand slam against the Angels. Another one i saw was Adam Wainwright and Jamie Garcia's first career complete game shutouts. I also saw the unveiling of Hall of  Famer inductee Whitey Herzog's number at Busch Stadium, number 24. That day was also his bobble head giveaway. Speaking of giveaways the majority of games I've gone to were indeed giveaways. Those were Chris Carpenter bobble head, Bob Gibson statue replica, and a pin giveaway. The next game I'm going to is a promotion day called jerseys off their back day.

About me

As you can tell my name is obviously long as can be. I am not royalty though i wish i was, but i am italian. My Great Grandfather Louie Marconi immigrated here from Italy, and my little cousin is named after him. I myself am named after my grandfather and then my dad. Since i was little i grew up a Cardinals fan, listening to KSHE95, and playing sports. I played football, basketball, and baseball throughout my high school career. Also, i was in the drama club and did the musicals and plays at my high school. I live in chester with my grandparents right across the street from the football field. Huge video game head, still have all the old nintendo systems hooked up and still play them. One of my favorite games is COD MW2(call of duty:modern warfare 2).
