Hey Danny,
A lot of times these sheets were produced in conjunction with either a "Heroes" game that happened before a real game or a "Heroes" event of some sort at the stadium. The sheets most often were tailored by who was to appear. In the case of Shannon the fact that he has been a Cardinals broadcaster since his retirement 40 years ago contributes to his stature in StL.
