Yes the Rockettes. They are out all over the country doing their Christmas show. My wife, daughter, sister and friends have tickets. So I wondered, if they are all over the country, how many of them are there? I went to their website. From there I found the link that shows ALL the girls. To save you the time of adding all the numbers up, here's the total count - 182. I'm sure this number varies over time but right now there's 182 of them. That's a bunch. No wonder they can be in lots of places at once.
I was checking out 'Radio city' tickets and seating when I found this -
•Obstructed View Tickets
Tickets marked "Obstructed View" indicate your view of the event may be less then the norm. Please understand that it is possible that you may have a completely blocked view of the stage.
That's right, you can pay $70 for a ticket and not be able to see the stage. I'll just let you think about this for awhile. When you figure it out, let me know why somebody would buy one of these tickets.
I couldn't find any mention of St. Louis on the Rockettes site but they do have a St. Louis connection. They actually started in St. Louis. I've met one of the original "Missouri Rockets".

So is this what Elton John was singing about in that song "Rockette Man"?
Probably not.
I knew they got their start here but I always thought Herbert Walker had something to do with their onset and development. Herbert Walker, St. Louisan, banker, grandfather of George 41. Time to go to Snopes.
I know exactly the eejit who buys those tickets. SB bought them when we went to see "Feet of Flames"
(Michael Flatley) we were behind a pillar up in the heavens.Couldn't even make out the dancers let alone see Flaming Feet!
So they're like SantyClauses? (Omnipresent?)
Omnipresent and fleetfooted! Goddesses on jet-propelled tap shoes! Are you sure you don't want to come with us, Mike?
G - That could have several interpretations.
B - I don't think that one will be in snopes.
F - "Feet of Flames" - now there's a term you don't hear much.
L - Their watching you right now.
C - Only if there is a pillar to sit behind.
