The RealLifeSTL Weekly Roundup For April 6, 2018

Taylor Swift, Saint Louis FC, John Cena & The St. Louis Cardinals Highlight The Week That Was
Each Friday, The RealLifeSTL Weekly Roundup will take you back over the week that was, mostly here on our site, but we’ll also throw in some other fun stuff as well. This part week we talked about Saint Louis FC, Taylor Swift, a new movie starring John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium and much more.
Saint Louis FC Beats Colorado Springs

The week started with a recap of the Saint Louis FC home opener last weekend. The Chupacabras took the full three points in a 1-0 win over Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC.
Kyle Greig scored the lone goal of the match and we made this animated GIF of it.

Taylor Swift Surprises Crowd At Bluebird Cafe, May Not Be Friends With Karlie Kloss Anymore
On Monday we also brought you the story of Taylor Swift surprising the crowd at the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville over the weekend. Taylor joined Craig Wiseman on the Bluebird stage to sing some songs and take some Fireball shots.
Speaking of Taylor Swift, her “squad” may be over. Apparently St. Louis native Karlie Kloss and Swift may not be best friends any longer. There’s a fan theory out there that the song “dress” from the Reputation album could be about Kloss.
Is this true? Who knows. People love to hate on T-Swizzle. Me? I’m still thinking about throwing down big bucks to see her when she comes to St. Louis in September.
The first trailer for The First Purge premiered this week. The film is set to hit theaters on July 4
Fresno FC Comes To St. Louis This Weekend
We previewed Saint Louis FC’s weekend match with Fresno FC on Wednesday. STLFC is coming off the aforementioned 1-0 win last Saturday. Fresno FC is 2-1-1 after winning twice last week.
