New beginnings. Try to mix it up.” Mikolas said he felt “100% better” after his burn party, although the aroma went farther than he thought. “The air current in the clubhouse kind of sucked it up,” he said. “It was done for the aura of things, in general.” As mentioned, things generally had been pretty bad lately for the Cardinals.
