The Cardinal Train is Coming…with Izzy, Mabry & The Mad Hungarian. GO CARDS!

I almost called into today with the “redbird flu.” Today is one of my favorite

days of the year – OPENING DAY. GO CARDS!


My Cardinals Opening Day ritual is to take the day off work, sleep in (gotta rest up) and head down to Al Hrabosky’s for the pre-game festivities.


Opening Day should be a national holiday. Can’t we have our own “St. Louis” holidays? I would give up MLK and Presidents Day to make Opening Day a paid vacation day. (Oh yeah, I don’t get those days off anyway.)


This year, I spent my opening day morning in the studio. It was great, because with all the interviews – Izzy, Al Hraboksy, Mabry and Heidi Glaus reporting for us from Busch Stadium – it really put me in the mood.

Cornbread even pulled from the vault the historic Pujols interview from spring training 2 years ago. What a soundbyte!


What are your opening day rituals?
