The Cardinals are a hot ticket, as their fan fest on Saturday drew between 3,000 and 4,000 fans according to the Arizona Republic. The paper says it was the largest crowd in years for the event.

“It was really kind of the first time we’ve had a chance to be with our fans since returning from the Super Bowl,” coach Ken Whisenhunt said.
“It was great to see the excitement and energy, too.”

Let’s hope that excitement will translate into another great Cards season in 2009.
