Around March of 2017, I made a bet.<\/p>\n

I’ll grant you it was a VERY stupid bet, but I made it.<\/p>\n

I was at a bachelor party with a friend who is a huge Cubs fan. I am a Cardinals fan.<\/p>\n

These two teams were meeting on opening day of 2017 and we decided to make it interesting.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t a money bet, though. Something more embarrassing.<\/p>\n

Both of us were attending another bachelor party a few months later in Denver and that’s when debts would be settled.<\/p>\n

The stakes?<\/p>\n

The loser would have to buy a complete uniform (cleats, stirrups, socks, pants, belt, jersey, batting gloves, cap & eye black) of the opposing team and wear it for 24 hours during said 2nd bachelor party.<\/p>\n

Again, this was a very, very stupid thing to wager on a single baseball game.<\/p>\n

Made even stupider by the fact that it was the very first game of the season.<\/p>\n

I don’t know about you, but the most devastated I was with the Cardinals in 2017 is when Wilson Contreras hit a 3-run HR<\/a> in the top of the 9th on opening day to erase a 3 run lead.<\/p>\n

Conversely, the Randal Grichuk single that won the game (and bet) in the bottom of the frame?<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HBer9ucRcfk<\/p>\n

Oh, BABY.<\/p>\n

The reason I’m sharing this with you is because we decided to make the loser of this bet (who shall remain un-named) go to a Rockies game in said Cardinals uniform (helps that most of the people on the trip rode with the Redbirds).<\/p>\n

\"Cardinals<\/p>\n

That’s a Cubs fan.<\/p>\n

In a full Cardinals uniform.<\/p>\n

At a Rockies game.<\/p>\n

The looks he got? All the LULZ.<\/p>\n

Don’t feel too bad for him, though. He embraced the absurdity of his situation and had a great night. Hell, he even took a few selfies with people that (somehow) thought he was a Cardinals player.<\/p>\n

But in the background of that pic? That’s ‘The Rooftop’ at Coors Field.<\/p>\n

+++++<\/p>\n

Today the Cardinals sent out a press release about their own version of this stadium area\/feature that will be called ‘Budweiser Terrace’.<\/p>\n

If you’re a baseball purist, you’re going to LOATH about every single talking point that I’m about to cut and paste:<\/p>\n

Multi-level social space that includes two full-service bars, social standing areas and lounge seating with a great view of the field, cozy cabana seating with urban garden accents on the concourse, plus an open air BBQ grill and a newly constructed covered performance stage.<\/em><\/p>\n

Full views of the playing field from each of the bar areas within Budweiser Terrace, allowing friends to mix and mingle all while taking in a Cardinals baseball game.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Fans do NOT need a special ticket to access the Budweiser Terrace. There are no assigned seats. The seating and standing areas are available on a first-come, first-served basis.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

A perfect destination for pre-game and in-game entertainment with live bands and DJs taking the performance stage before the game as well as other special games and activities.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As a dude that was with people of various levels of baseball interest just a few months ago at a very similar set-up?<\/p>\n

BIG thumbs up.<\/p>\n

Here are the pics the Cardinals provided:<\/p>\n

\"Cardinals<\/p>\n

\"Cardinals<\/p>\n

\"Cardinals<\/p>\n

\"Cardinals<\/p>\n

This won’t be for everyone.<\/p>\n

And unlike in Denver where they use ‘The Roof’ to attract a crowd that would have never gone to a baseball game if they didn’t sell 10 dollar tickets to the space, this is going to be more of a value add to the overall stadium experience.<\/p>\n

But…<\/p>\n

I have a feeling this is going to be a hit for the fans that like baseball, but love<\/em> a good party.<\/p>\n

The Budweiser Terrace opens this season.<\/p>\n

Just in time to double down?<\/p>\n
