St Louis North America's Best College Sport City

 

St Louis Convention and  Visitors Commission

Sports - all types of sports - are not just a pastime in St. Louis. They are considered to be an obsession. Where else in this vast country can you stop a grandmother at random on the street and have an in-depth discussion about earned run averages, shots on goal and quarterback ratings? 

St. Louis is recognized as one of the most active sports centers in the USA and St. Louisans are noted for their support of Cardinals baseball, the hockey Blues, the NFL's Rams and local university team.

St. Louisans think their community deserves it every year, but the editors and readers of The Sporting News made it official from August 2000 through July 2001, naming St. Louis as North America's Best Sports City. The national sports publication cited St. Louis' success on the field as well as fan support, quality of sporting venues, positive media attention and sports ambience in making their selection. Sports publications also consistently declare St. Louis as America's best baseball city.

Sports fans can look forward to even more significant athletic events this year and in St. Louis' future.

On Sunday, April six, runners of all abilities can participate in the 3rd Spirit of St. Louis Marathon, which begins and ends in downtown St. Louis. A half-marathon, marathon relay, 5K run/walk, children's fun runs and a health and fitness expo are also part of the weekend activities.  In 2004, the U.S. Women's Olympic Marathon Trials will be held in St. Louis. That race will decide which athletes will make the U.S. Olympic team.
