Busch Stadium #9 of MLB
Posted Saturday, August 26, 2023 02:15 PM

Location: St. Louis, Missouri

Capacity: 45,494

Opened: 2006

Bottom line: While the view of the Gateway Arch from inside of Busch Stadium is one of the more notable features of any MLB ballpark, there's much more to where the St. Louis Cardinals play home games than the view. 

Fans lucky enough to make their way to St. Louis can get a complete experience in the Ballpark Village district around the stadium. Some stadiums have capacity seating that far exceeds its fans' grasp except for postseason experiences — but that's not the case in St. Louis. Every game in the inaugural season of 2006 was sold out and set an attendance record of approximately 3.4 million … only to be exceeded three times since then.

That's why this is one of a few MLB stadiums on every real baseball fan's bucket list.
