So the Cardinals are offering a "Limited Edition Aerial Photograph of the Inaugural game at the New Busch Stadium." The photo is a monster: 27" x 39". But so is the price. As someone with a keen interest in Cardinal-themed photography, I was initially very excited by this offer. I've been looking for a photo of Busch III to put up on my wall for a while. But the thing costs $98 before they tack on $25 extra for shipping, handling, and convenience (whatever that means). And given the print's size, I'd need to drop at least $150 to have it framed. So there's no way I'll be getting it. And really that's for the best. The stadium looks good in the shot, but the big dirt pit where the old Stadium used to be looks pretty bad. It would be nice if they could put some grass there or something until the Ballpark Village construction starts in the fall.
