The St. Louis Vacation Spot


Finally, Finally, finally, oh yeah and I finally went and spent some time in St. Louis. Yeah, I know I'm thirty five and I finally took myself to the other side of the state.
Two nights and two days in the heart of baseball town. Unlike
Kansas City's fair weather fan base, St. Louis was a Sea of Red, not just inside the stadium, but all over the city streets the color red bobbed and weaved throughout even the tiniest nook. But, before the game on Saturday the St. Louis experience kicked off with a trip to D.B.'s or B.D.'s I'm not sure which, simply because our evening drinking started at the hotel room off the Boulevard. Pretty much everything was within walking distance from the hotel, and walking is a great way for me stay drunkenly sober...?
DB's was an interesting place to eat dinner at to say the least. The food was great for a little hole in the wall. And I always recommend staying away from franchise food anyway, you can get that at home. I ordered the tuna fish sandwich, and I also split my meal with the G Man. How sweet was that of you my honey bear. Mi compadre split a jalapeno burger with me as well. Tasty-deep fried jalapenos on pan-fried meat is simply mind-blowing. Oh, and the fish was good too.
The main attraction about DB's is the servers all wear scantily clad outfits, opposite of the family friendly Hooters establishments, these women adorned dominatrix outfits, and if tipped properly would paddle your bottom with a big stick. That's right a big Paddle stick with your pants around your ankles. The only thing protecting you from the splinters is the thin layer of cotton boxer briefs. Good times all the way around to say the least...
We went to another place after eating, however my memory escapes me of the name - ha ha...
It was a hoppin' spot with about fifty or sixty kinds of beer on tap, and plenty of good-looking women to gawk at.
Saturday mid-morning, a trip to the Budweiser Brewery was on the agenda. Barrels of Beer of Fun. And it's free too, I need to work for Budweiser if they can afford to do tours of the home plant for free, plus give you two free draft beers at the end-wickedly cool. I can't say enough about good-times that are free...
From there it was more delicious beer and St. Louis style Pizza, I ate an entire 14" pizza all to myself, oh yeah and more beer... With an overly filled belly we walked to Paddio's, which was an open bar, across from Busch Stadium. Lots of dirty women to look at, and free shots of whisky that flowed like oil from the Gulf of Mexico into the sea water.
The game started at 6:15, the seats were great, and a switch to Captain and Coke was apparent. Busch stadium had many benefits over Kaufman. To name the most unique, Busch stadium had its own batting cages, very surprising. Our seats of the first base-line allowed me to get a thumb on a foul ball. I was stupefied. The game was a nail-biter, however the Cardinal's pulled off a 7-6 victory over the DiamondBack's in the top of the ninth. The weather was perfect...
We closed the city down at Paddio's following the game with bucket fulls of Rum, dancing, and Craig (Future Brother-In-Law) exclaiming how he had won the Smallest Penis in the Midwest Award...
