St. Louis is the Gateway to Fun! by Gary Ketchum

St.
Louis is known as the "Gateway to the West", but don't go West just
yet, because you'll want to see what this beautiful city has to offer
first. St. Louis is known for it's famed professional sports teams,
it's signature style tastes, and it's Blues music heritage. If your
heading to this metropolis on the Mississippi, then be prepared to have
some fun!


If your into baseball, then you'll want to check out the St. Louis
Cardinals. The Cardinals play at brand new Busch Stadium, which was
opened in 2006. The park has a modern/rustic feel and look to it. It's
outside appearance is one of red brick and black steel girders, that
mimic some of the city's area bridges. Once your inside the park,
you'll instantly notice the gorgeous view of downtown in centerfield.
As far as the team, the Cardinals have achieved fifteen National League
pennants, which have led to nine World Series championships. The
freindly fans are some of the most loyal in all of baseball so your
sure to get into some great baseball conversation.


After a day at the ball park, you'll want to indulge yourself in some
St. Louis style cuisine. If your feeling fancy and want to trade your
baseball cap in for romantic white linen tables, then the Top of the
Riverfront is for you. Located on the 28th floor of the Millennium
Hotel, this five star revolving restaurant offers spectacular panoramic
views of the city. Except for an exceptional Sunday Brunch, this
restaurant is only open for dinner, so the menu is limited. There are
great choices including various steak and fish entries. If your looking
to dine somwhere a little less fancy, than how about feasting on some
St. Louis style BBQ. Located seven miles from the downtown area, Ropers
Ribs has some of the best BBQ in the area. Their inexpensive menu
includes tantalizing jumbo fried shrimp, giant rib tips, baby back
ribs, and of course, St. Louis style ribs. The dining area is small but
the food is highly rated by many!


If your a music fan, then St. Louis will make your ears twitch with
glee. St. Louis has long been known for it's Blues heritage and has put
out such talent an Tina Turner, Gretchen Wilson, and Nelly. Many big
names such as these, can be seen at various venues in and around St.
Louis, such as the Fabulous Fox Theatre, the Scottrade Center, and the
Verizon Wireless Amphitheater. If your not into large crowded venues
then you may want to check one of the many Blues clubs. A fan favorite
is the Broadway Oyster Bar. Located just a short walk from Busch
Stadium, this club offers a variety of Cajun and Blues bands and the
place is always hopping. There is an outdoor patio and Monday nights,
the Blue Oyster offers a variety of distinct Soulard Blues bands, a
sound that is synonomous with St. Louis Blues.


These are just a few of the things that you can do in this fabulous
city, and whether your a sports addict, a food critic, or have a music
fetish, St. Louis is sure to satisfy your expectations of entertainment.
