On a different front, the Lady Miners got a First Ever kind of victory today during this Best Ever week.
Meanwhile, The Best Ever Blog is busy anticipating tomorrow's parade. It's only a matter of hours now until the street painters will start to do their thing. We might not get a chance to post to this blog much in the midst of this big weekend, but we'll follow up on Monday at the latest, at which time we will have a bunch of re-cap stuff and we'll solicit your stories/comments about the 100th celebration. Even though this blog will ultimately go into hibernation, we'll be back again for the 101st celebration.
P.S. Check out the St. Louis Post-Dispatch tomorrow for a big story on the Best Ever. Also, the Associated Press is coming tomorrow, which means this thing might get some national coverage.
Karrs had car trouble 3/15/08 so we stayed home and watched THE Parade on TV for 90 minutes. I was disappointed that so many "Floats" were actually just a car with somebody's name taped to the side of it. A 30 minute parade with real floats would have been good. The bands were GREAT!
