The next day, we woke up, had a little breakfast in the room, then met up with Hudson again and went out for coffee. When we were outside, we heard a police car squeal and turnaround quickly. Soon we saw what they were after -- a car went speeding down the street towards the area we were in. Along with a bunch of other people. It tried to make a quick turn, but ended up going over a curb and crashing. It was crazy. The person was fine and ended up running down the street (we think he was caught later). What blew me away (in a good way), is people ran towards the car to help. One of the chefs in a restaurant even ran out with a first aid kit. I thought that was pretty amazing. It was a scary situation though. And what's really nuts, is when we were in The Loop the night before, there was a high speed chase through the main street. We saw two in less than 24 hours. Really sad, if you ask me. Anyhoo, after coffee we went to check out St. Louis City stadium. It's really impressive. Hopefully some day we'll get to a game. When pre-sale started for season tickets, there were over 65,000 people who signed up. Tickets are impossible to get and super expensive. The team is doing great though. There's always Amsterdam Pub I guess. After that, we walked through The Gateway Arch. We hadn't done that since Spring Break four years ago and it was the perfect day. Then we walked through The Grove and grabbed sandwiches at The Gramophone. Hudson had to get back for a meeting and swim, and Cole wanted to chill in the room for a little bit, so Brian and I walked through City Foundry then grabbed slushy cocktails at Narwhals before going to back to the room to get ready for an amazing dinner at indo. We've been wanting to go there for awhile, but never planned well enough -- until this time. It was a really nice treat for all of us.
