The World Series Championship Trophy is in Springfield! It will be on hand Monday and Tuesday at the Springfield Cardinals game. Gates will open 30 minutes earlier than normal, so fans can take their pictures with it. Game time is 7:10pm and gates will open at 5:40pm
GIRLS WILL APPRECIATE THIS NEXT LINE--
Tiffany & Co. makes the trophy.
Um, there was no "blue box", but it did come in a Tiffany bag!
General Manager Matt Gifford shows us a part of the trophy we never see--the bottom. People who handle the trophy must wear gloves. Matt Gifford and Kirk Elmquist (General manager and VP Sales and Marketing) both escorted the trophy to our morning show...and also standing by was a Greene County sheriff's deputy.
And to think, I was kind of dreading the early morning hours today!
Me and the trophy.
