Governor Jennifer M. Granholm today completed the terms of her wager with Missouri Governor Matt Blunt over the outcome of the 2006 World Series. Granholm placed the friendly wager with Missouri Governor Matt Blunt in support of the Detroit Tigers in their match-up with the St. Louis Cardinals.
Under the terms of the wager, Granholm donned a St. Louis Cardinals' jersey, read a chapter from "Three Nights in August," enjoyed a Missouri-branded steak with Missouri wine, all of which was documented in a photograph that is available on the Governor's website. Granholm was also interviewed by McGraw Millhaven on the Cardinals' flagship station KTRS, the Big 550, as part of the wager. The interview took place on Friday, November 3, at 11:05 a.m. (EST).
The St. Louis Cardinals won the World Series in Game 5 against the Detroit Tigers on Friday, October 27.
