Cardinal Caravan Greatest Hits

Steve Batterson collects some stories from the Cardinal Caravan stop at Modern Woodmen Park.

The one-liners of the event come from The Mad Hungarian!
Temperatures hovered near 20 degrees, and snow covered the playing field at Modern Woodmen Park on Monday, but the Cubs-Cards rivalry never is out of season.

Or, as former St. Louis pitcher and Cardinals broadcaster Al Hrabosky put it, “I’ve got my World Series ring on because I know none of the Cub fans have ever seen one.”

Or, as he added, “When you talk about the Cubs, all you have to remember are the last two letters.”
Oh, to be a funny broadcaster.

    Al said that at the Cardinals Winter Warm-Up in St. Louis, too. I was there, being a creepy Cardinals fan. So, don't feel bad, he's not AS witty as he pretends.
    Stay warm, Chris!

    If a line is funny in St. Louis it's probably going to be funny in Davenport, Iowa.

    Staying warm isn't a problem anymore, Heidi. It actually got into the 20's this week.

    Thanks for the comment and hope things are well down there.
