Cardinals Home Opener Lunch

Redbirds, root beer, and team spirit: a true st. louis opening day

This year’s Home Opener gave us the perfect excuse to come together, celebrate the season, and show some love for the city of St. Louis.


As first pitch approached, excitement was high as the Cardinals took on their home opener and delivered a strong showing, securing a 9-7 victory. It was a great start to the season and an even better reason to celebrate!


To get into the ballpark spirit, we enjoyed all the classic game‑day favorites—hot dogs, Cracker Jack®, loaded nachos, and of course, some St. Louis‑made Mr. Fitz's root beer. Nothing says Opening Day quite like ballpark food shared with great company.


The fun didn’t stop there. Our team brought the competition indoors with a Wii Home Run Derby, where bragging rights were on the line and plenty of laughs were had.


Here’s to a winning year ahead! Go Cards!
