Attending Games

i personally only buy 1-3 games (usually opening day and try to get a cubs series game) when single game tickets become available but i usually get to go to 15-25 games a year; going through friends invites and finding really cheap tickets on sites like craigslist.

For some reason, I went back to school. But, I used to do 5-10 games/ year. I qualify that with a reminder that those were in the middle of the golden era of playoff teams. Living in Des Moines, IA, I always try to make the Cards vs. Royals at Kaufman (cheaper seats and a short drive) on top games featuring returning former Cardinals (San Diego this year), vs. the Cubs, and to see specific players (perhaps Carl Crawford and other Rays this year).

I make it to about 3-5 games a year. Catch most of the rest on the radio.

I've been to two games in my life. Once when turning 11 and once in 2006 to take my dad to a game in new Busch. I'm a season ticket holder at Springfield for both the AA Birds and the Bears, so that gets me by. I don't miss a single game on television, though, if I'm not here, I TiVo it and watch it later.

I'm half tempted to move to Atlanta. Has anyone else looked at their season ticket packages? You can get a seat for a full season, 81 games, for $200.

I bought season tickets while living in Springfield, IL but moved to Chicago for a great job during the 2006 season. Held on to them (Left Field Bleachers) and made it down to 14 games at Busch last year, 5 Cards games at Miller Park in Milwaukee, and 5 against the Cubs here in Chicago.

Non-Cardinal games: 3 White Sox games here in Chicago, 4 other brewer games, and a random game out in Baltimore when I was visiting DC.

This year I am tentatively scheduled to see 18 various Cards game accross the country. Before I moved in August 2006, I was making to around half the games at Busch.

I live in Miami, Fl. So I see the series here against the Fish, but I make regular visits to St. Louis for games during the year. I've been to four games so far this spring, and I'll be at Opening Day too.

I live in San Francisco, unfortunately the cards are only out here for 4 games at the beginning of the season. But I will be going to three of the four games. Disappointed I won't be able to see Rasmus play though.

I'm in KC, but don't have much $. It works out well for me...I get to see them three times here where tickets are much cheaper and 3 times in STL (vs. the Royals so my wife can see her team twice, too) where we have to spend a little more...

make the trip to STL about three times a year...try to catch at least two games on a weekend once a year. Already got one on the calendar this year and hoping to buy more tix in a couple of hours.

I go to Safeco to see the M's a couple times a year. Still waiting for the Cards to play here through intraleague games.

the western part, that is, about 6 hours drive from Busch III. We usually make a couple of trips a year and 2-3 games per trip. It looks a bit iffy this year as our summer is pretty busy but I'm sure we get one trip in at least.

When I lived in Texas, I only got to see the Cards when they played at the Astrodome. What fun! (not)
