The Busch Memorial
$24.00
Long before stadiums had corporate names with as much charm as stale popcorn, they were named after men and locations. Sure the names may have been just as corporate but I'll take Briggs and Comiskey over Comerica and US Cellular any day. These cathedrals were meeting places, a spot to spend an afternoon cheering for the home team. They're all gone now but the memories that took place within their walls still remain, even if now home plate is a parking lot and left field is a mall.
Every cathedral deserves a crown. Busch Memorial had one made from 96 arches, a nod to the Gateway Arch that opened a year before the stadium. The second of its name, Busch Memorial was host to six World Series, one All Star game and a 62nd home run in its almost four decades of service.
