Vikings Are Done — Twins On Deck


Nice to see the old Twins characters figure prominently. They'll light up and shake hands at every Twins homer.

A couple of weeks ago, I was lucky enough to get a private tour of the new Twins ballpark, Target Field. My aunt is the executive assistant to Jerry Bell — the president of Twins Sports, Inc. — and Mr. Bell graciously allowed her to take some family members through the stadium.

After my tour, it was hard to imagine ever seeing a nicer professional sports stadium. It seems as though they have thought of everything! From lounges to food and bars, there doesn’t seem to be a bad seat in the house. The views, accommodations and experience from every seat seem priceless to me.

It’s tough to pick a favorite feature when I am so excited for all of it! No more heading into a bubble on a beautiful summer day. Instead, pack the sunscreen and decide which angle you are going to get the best tan from! The toughest decision to make now will be which of the many stadium bars you want to get a drink from.

Let the countdown begin! 75 days until opening day at Target Field and outdoor baseball for Minnesota Twins fans!
