Every city has a good side and a bad side. You have to weigh both sides before you make a decision like moving your family to an unknown city. This is a quick guide to help you with that decision. Here are nine reasons why you should never, ever move to St. Louis:

1. Its hard being a fan of the number two baseball team in the league.

Baseball season is a full time job in St. Louis. Whether it's a home game at Busch Stadium or away games at our favorite bar and grill, we are very busy rooting for our Cardinals!
2. Just as soon as the Cards are winding up the season, hockey starts.

There is no relief from the job of being a full time fan in St. Louis.
3. Holding a full time job is hard in St. Louis.

When we are not rooting for our sports teams we are still busy. Almost everything in St. Louis is free. The zoo, the museums, the parks, the list goes on and on. It's super hard to go to work when there are so many free things to do every day no matter what the weather brings.
4. Not a lot of people can take in the mass amounts of barbeque a native St. Louisan can.

If you move to St. Louis, I doubt you hang with the barbeque scene.
