The Bird joins the flock of All-Star fans
All-Star weekend has begun in St. Louis with the opening of the All-Star Fanfest at America’s Center downtown.
The event includes interactive exhibits and attractions, clinics, free autograph sessions with current major league players and retired Hall of Famers. The fest will run through Tuesday, in additition to the many All-Star events including a charity concert Saturday by Elvis Costello and Sheryl Crow, a charity 5K & Fun Run, leading up to the actual All-Star Game on Tuesday.
Find a visitors guide (great for local folks in “staycation” mode) of the events surrounding the game, plus things to see and do downtown. You can also view our photo gallery of fun Fanfest events.
