Default Tips for Visiting STL?

There are already several things on my 'to do' list, but are there sites/activities (touristy or otherwise) I should make sure aren't missed?
Any thoughts about the City Museum?

Any input is appreciated.

There is a ton of things to do in St. Louis and surrounding area. Here are just some suggestions not knowing what you really like to do. Also... If you give us a date/time, maybe we can pull a group together to hook up and go on a rid - there are a lot of great roads just outside of St. Louis.

A cards game (even though I'm not a huge baseball fan, it's definitely an experience!)
Lunch at Pappy's
A ride to the top of the arch (corny, I know!!)
A malt and BLT from crown candy
Take a carriage ride downtown
Have a great steak at Al's Steak House
Go to Dominic's on "The Hill" - The Hill has a bunch of fantastic restaurauts if you like Italian.
Cunnetto's house of pasta
Visit Forest Park and it's many attractions
A concrete from Ted Drew's
Pi & Imo's pizza
Spending happy hours on St. Charles riverfront and Laclede's Landing
Visit old town St. Charles and it's shops

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I was already planning on going up the Arch.
Heading to STL tomorrow and staying downtown until Thursday. Wish there was more time because it seems like there's a TON of stuff to do! I know it's mid-week and kinda last minute, but if anyone does want to get together let me know.

Made it. And in an hour and a half less than googlemaps told me I would. Time to go up on floor from the hotel room and check out the Arch. I don't really have any evening plans, so if anyone wants to get together, I'm game for whatever! I'm leaving Thursday morning.

St.Louis has some excellent craft breweries if you are into that type of thing. Urban Chestnutt, Six Row, and Schlafly to name a few.

I had heard of Schlafly, but the hotel bar was out. I will check into the other ones too. Thanks!
