January 19, 1949 – Stan Musial announced he had purchased half interest in the former 66 Café operated by Julius “Biggie” Garagnani. The restaurant, at 6435 Chippewa would be known as Stan Musial and Biggies, Stan said. The National League batting champion and MVP was in the midst of a two-year contract paying him $50,000 per year and said his new interest wouldn’t interfere with his baseball. “I won’t be around much during the baseball season,” he said.
