The line at the U.S. Cellular store at Gravois Bluffs went all the way to the door as fans showed up to see the St. Louis Cardinals World Series trophy and have their picture taken with it.

"It's a chance of a lifetime," said one fan who was thrilled to see the championship hardware.

Chase Schriver, 12, of Fenton, was happy to see the trophy too. He wore his 2012 World Series commemorative T-shirt. He  and his grandmother were on an outing just to see the Cardinals' prize.

The trophy tour moves on Friday before returning to the area March 27 for a stop in High Ridge.  For a complete schedule of appearances on the trophy click here.
