Hey Headon.

I live in St. Louis. Downtown/Stadium is 7-8 miles from Ferguson. Just about everything going on there is isolated to that area and shouldn’t be a problem for you. I live 4 miles south of Ferguson in a mixed neighborhood.... there are no issues at all here, people are just going about their business.

It is mostly out-of-town rabble-rousers coming in.

You’ll be absolutely fine where you will be staying.

Hope you see some Cardinal wins!!

One of my dearest girlfriends lives alone in a little house just outside of Ferguson. Fortunately, there is an interstate that divides her neighborhood from the “bad” area.

She also says that the problems are being caused by “outsiders who are being bussed in”

I havent actually been downtown (I live west of STL) for some time, but I work in the County and all reports I have seen of trouble have been north of STL in Ferguson itself.
Even driving through on I-270 just north of Ferguson, as far as I am aware, is no issue as the troubled area is south of you at that point.
You may see some protesting near the stadium - they have chosen that venue in the past - but it likely wouldnt amount to much.
All in all, the problems have been focused upon a small area and not spread out generally through STL.
Personally, though, I would plan on avoiding the Metro-Link and drive wherever you are going.

The Cardinals and Busch III are a super-massive cash generating machine for the city. Do you think the city is going to permit that machine to get disrupted? Do you think 43,000 devout fans are going to let a few protesters get between them and their team?

Hopefully the Cardinals will sweep the Pirates in this series starting tonight & the atmosphere will be great.

Go Cards!!!

If it's safe enough for the Griswolds, it's safe enough for you.
