Brian Dowdy has been a Cardinal fan all of his life. Born and raised in Dexter, Brian attended his first game in 1982 and was hooked. He has seen the Cardinals play too many times to count and watched the Cardinals play in Miami, Chicago, Houston, Cleveland and Kansas City and the list is growing.

Welcome to Dowdy's Dugout Discussions

I have been a huge St Louis Cardinal fan my whole life, my first game was in August of 1982 on a family vacation when I was 8 years old and have been hooked since. Growing up in the 1980's listening to Jack Buck and watching "Whitey Ball" really increased my love of the game.

The name of this blog is Dowdy's Dugout Discussions and in the following blogs I will be bringing some thoughts about the St Louis Cardinals at home and on the road.

I have been to Cardinal games in Miami, Chicago, Houston, Cleveland, Kansas City and have toured the ballparks in Pittsburgh, Colorado, Tampa, Arlington.

This year plans are in the works for attending Cards games in Milwaukee, Oakland, Anaheim, and a Twins game in Minnesota.

I would like to hear from you as we go along for future ideas or concerns. I have several in mind to start with but as the season goes along and ideas change I like having input from the readers.
