We'll get 'em next time

Categories:

This is going to be a long post again, because I did quite a bit this weekend!

Friday, Elizabeth and Sarah got here and we got food at WalMart then just came back here and made it/hung out.

Saturday, we woke up somewhat early and went to the zoo. It was a little chilly and some rain, but nothing we couldn't handle! Afterwards, we got lunch then came back here to look for places to watch the US Women's National team's [soccer] game against Australia. Well, not many bars/restaurants in STL have Fox Soccer Channel but we managed to find one [The Dubliner] and they set us up in our own little room and everything because the Cubs/Cardinals game was going on and the Kentucky Derby but they wanted us to be able to watch the games still. What a game it was!! Two own goals and a coronary later, Angela Hucles ended up scoring the winning goal with seconds left, and an AMAZING goal it was! We went to the Galleria after just to walk around. We ended up just coming back here and hanging out in the lounge after that.



Sunday we slept in a little because we were exhausted. We went to Laclede's for lunch because Elizabeth made friends with the bartender the day before when we were trying to see if they had FSC. Then we went downtown early afternoon to hang out before the game. We went up in the arch and I was a little scared at first, but it was awesome!!

Emily got hungry so we went to Morgan Street Brewery so she could get a burger. We got a little more than we expected. It's kind of a long story but the main point of it, was that we think they kicked this group of people out because they left the brother inside by himself [we think he may have had Autism or another developmentally disease] and he had had a beer or two and must have said something to someone. Well the bouncer guy called the police and they ended up arresting at least two of the three people [the mom, and her two sons] because they wouldn't pay for their food because they hadn't eaten any of it yet because they got kicked out. Well this turned into a 6 police car + a paddywagon...for three people who wouldn't pay their bill. It was quite the attraction though! People that were in the horse drawn carriage rides and stuff were taking pictures and everything. I hope their day turned out okay though.

This post is already extremely long, but I still haven't talked about the game, so I apologize. The game was awesome though! Our seats were, well the very top row, but we had a great view of the field! The Cardinals unfortunately came out on top but as the title of this says, we'll get 'em next time! I did get a few comments about my shirt, but I'm sure it was all in good fun ;-)
