What's awesome is they had the weigh in at Hrabosky's Ballpark Saloon. I've been there a TON and it's my go to place in St. Louis. It's right behind homeplate of Busch Stadium across a parking lot. Awesome place, and I have met several baseball players there.
My friends actually met Robbie Lawler and Matt Hughes there last season.
