October 27, Total Eclipse of the Moon in St. Louis tonight

(Click to link to: US Naval Observatory, Eclipse Computer)

Any idea of what else may be happening tonight at 10:04pm (11:04 ESDT) in St. Louis this evening?
From 9:23 to 10:44 (10:23 - 11:44 local time) this evening, the moon will be eclipsed.

Note (10/29/04): At 11:40pm local time, the Boston Red Sox laid to rest 86 years of history and fears of a curse as the final out was made against the St. Louis Cardinals.  A 4-0 sweep of the Cardinals after a 4-3 series win against the New York Yankees gave the Red Sox a sweet World Series Championship.
The Yankees series will forever be remembered as the first time a Major League Baseball team has recovered from losing the first 3 games of a series to win the next four - and thus win the series.
