The St.
Louis Cardinals are capitalizing on the “tarps off” trend at Busch Stadium.
The club has created an official high-energy fan section in the upper right field bleachers.
Any ticketed fan, regardless of their seat location, will be allowed to participate.
Shirts are optional.
The “tarps off” trend began organically last week during the Cardinals’ series against the Kansas City Royals.
A group of club baseball players from Stephen F.
Austin State University showed up in right field, chanting, waving shirts and eventually celebrating by taking their shirts off.
The group caught the attention of the Cardinals, in particular manager Oliver Marmol, who bought tickets to bring them back for the next game.
The Stephen F.
Austin team, which was in town for a multi-day baseball tournament, returned Tuesday night for a final evening of shirtless celebrations.
Starting with Wednesday night’s game against the Pirates, any fan with a ticket at Busch Stadium will be invited to sit in the right field bleachers and participate in the new high-energy section.
The Cardinals aren’t requiring fans to go shirtless and say the decision whether to go “tarps off” is up to them.
