St. Louis lived up to its motto this weekend as "The Place To Be".
The day started with a parade down Market Street featuring Mayor Slay, Lou Brock, the Vashon High School marching band, Police Chief Mokwa, Fred Bird, Father Time, and many more.
After the parade, Taste St. Louis continued on the Gateway Mall, along with a downtown street fair at Kiener Plaza.
Later in the day, the St. Louis Cardinals rallied from a 5-0 deficit to complete a 3-game sweep of the Cincinatti Reds, winning their 100th game of the season on the occasion of the last regular season game in the storied history of Busch Stadium.
Following the game, there was a celebration of Busch Sstadium and Cardinal Nation as most of the current and former Cardinal players were introduced on the field, along with many of the long-time workers at Busch Stadium.
As the festivities at Busch were coming to a close, things were heating up over at Savvis Center. The St. Louis Blues were closing out their preseason with a rousing 2-1 defeat over the Chicago Blackhawks.
Fall is a great time of year in St. Louis. There were things happening all around the region, and downtown was leading the way, attracting tens of thousands of visitors.
