So poetfred's onw block is his *stadium* ("Busch II" bolded)?!?  Hilarious if true, but Busch and Busch II aren't the same stadium, right?

Correct, they are not the same stadium and it is bolded because Busch II was not in use 1976-1993

ok guys, just did another 2nd check with Baseball-reference.com and

Busch Stadium II was in use in 79, 84 and 91 for instance, so it qualifies as a stadium for this period.  .

I am afraid I will not allow it.

I go by the WIS sports database which can be found here.

Also, for what its worth, according to the same baseball reference:

Busch Stadium II built in 2006)

That's the right call, since WIS's "Busch Stadium II" clearly refers to the current Busch, which didn't exist until the 2006 season.  bb-ref refers to the previous Busch as "Busch Stadium II" (Cardinals moved from Sportsman's IV to Busch II when it opened midway through the 1966 season), but I haven't been able to figure out what "Busch Stadium I" is.

Aha -- according to wiki, Sportsman's Park was renamed Busch ("Busch I") in 1953, but WIS doesn't use that name.

This being the TMH (Truemen's Mom's Hiatus) and all, I'm not in a big hurry to finalize my list of Round 6 picks.  I've got some Mother's Day things of my own to do...
