Looking at getting some tix for May and have never been to this park..  Is there leg room?  Big butt style seats?   Any info would be great..

Honestly not sure what your asking but it's like any park.  Normal sized seats. I think everything is box seat style if I remember correctly.

What are the seats like? Maybe that's more simply put..  I am tall and big so and wife is short and wide LOL  So comfort is important LOL

I think the seats are fine but I'm 5'11 200? So not sure what that means in comparison. I would just get the seats and see how they are. You can always sit at the picinic tables on the Berm behind the left field fence if the box seats aren't to your liking.

Didn't you mention earlier this winter that you hadn't ate for the previous few months, Teuf? If you kept that up all winter how "big" can you be?

I was 560 lbs on June 11th 2012.... As of today I am 317 lbs... And I am 6'3" to boot lol.....   Not a small guy by any means....

I havent had solid food since the morning of June 11th....

That's like losing Matt Adams(243 lbs.) in less than a year. Amazing! You undoubtedly saved your life, Teuf. I think it's ok to head on over and get yourself a whopper and fries today....you certainly deserve it.

You doing the whole Juicing thing?

No its a liquid diet thru hospital.... All doctor supervised and stuff...    Pugs I would get sick if I ate that right now..   What is weird is I have craved pea's with salt and pepper off and on for a few months.. And I dont even like pea's... Go figure..

I have been to the stadium several times since moving back to the area.  A great place to see a Class A game.  Reasonably easy to get to the ball park, convenient parking, comfortable seating and good concessions.  They have a great 4th of July special where you can watch the game and stay and watch the city fireworks show after the game (we saw a no-hitter two years ago).  My kids love going to the ball park for games...they will love it even more with the Cardinals being back in town!

A couple of useful links to check out the stadium:

I agree on everything but the food. I really don't like the food there all. In that way it is far worse than Modern Woodman's Park.

At they have some cool promo's too and expect it to stay the same with the Cards there. There is also free parking if you want to get early and park on the road that leads away from the park.

Thanks.... Had already looked  some stuff up...  Saw that they are having fireworks nights several times this year...  I asked how the box seats were because they are very cheap there and having been a big guy my whole life I make choices based on comfort level of the seating at a public event..    Its hard to change a basic rule of thumb one someone has for themselves...

Thanks for all the info you guys have given...  When I decide on a time to go it will be a Sat night game in May probably..

It's a beautiful ballpark but the chair seats are the same as any other ballpark.  It's a great place to watch a game.

There are usually quite a few empty seats so there should be no problem.  In the outfield they have a lawn you can sit on and picnic tables.
