Watch Busch Stadium get all dressed up for a U.S. Men's National Team soccer game
Watch Busch Stadium transform into a soccer field
Back in April, Busch Stadium hosted the U.S. Women's National Team's friendly against New Zealand, breaking attendance records while allowing St. Louis to say, "we liked them before they won the World Cup." Now they're getting ready to host another soccer game -- the U.S. Men's National Team's 2018 World Cup qualifier against St. Vincent and the Grenadines (yes, that's a real place and not just the singer and a bunch of cocktail mixers).
The USMNT will play on Friday, but the Busch grounds crew has been busy at work since last week. Not only did they cover up the infield dirt and remove the mound, they even took down the foul poles for the first time in the stadium's history:
