Thankful for the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome

I read in a local sports column that the Minnesota Twins have played a half-dozen games in the Metrodome this season that would have been rainouts had they been played outdoors.
I am not looking forward to all of those rescheduled games when the Twins move to their new ballpark. I guess right now I can just say I am thankful for the HHH Metrodome.

Check out the Minnesota Twins schedule and make plans to get out (or rather in) to a game!

Minnesota Twins and Metrdome host all you can eat

On Monday night, the Minnesota Twins offered the first ever all-you-can-eat Twins ticket. For an extra $12 and the purchase of your section 231 upper level ticket, you got a wristband that allowed you to fill up on your favorite Metrodome food. The promotion was huge and fans waited in long lines for the Metrodome hot dog, nacho, pretzel, popcorn and coke buffet. There were a few rules like you could only get two food items and one pop at one time, but people just kept getting in line for more. The Metrodome concourse was actually crowded on a Monday night Twins game so the promo must have worked!

Boston Red Sox at the Metrodome

Wow! The Metrodome was in full swing with the 2007 World Champion Boston Red Sox making a series stop here in the Twin Cities. Fans from all over the northern Midwest packed the Metrodome to watch a great homestand against the reigning Boston Red Sox. The ‘New Look’ Twins have continued doing what they do best; winning games with fundamental defense and a strong hitting lineup and so far, it’s worked for them. The Twins are 12-6 at the Metrodome Minneapolis this year, and stand at a .158 since the start of the season back on March 31, the earliest season opener in the Twins history.

Looking around at the Metrodome crowd this weekend, I was somewhat surprised to notice the absence of Red Sox jerseys and caps with the letter ‘B’ on them. Even though this Twins ball club has a lot of new faces, it’s still abundantly clear that Twins fans are loyal to their team. Usually, when a team wins the World title, they tend to attract a slue of fair-weather fans, but here in Minnesota, the Twins are synonymous with springtime, the only professional indoor baseball stadium in the country, and in my opinion, the best fans! See ya at the Dome!

Visit the Metrodome on Mothers Day

The Hubert H Humphrey will be full of Mothers in pink on Sunday, May 11th thanks to a Minnesota Twins promotion that gives the first 10,000 females (presumably mothers) a pink Minnesota Twins t-shirt. So grab your mom and head out to the Minnesota Twins vs Boston Red Sox game! The game starts at 7:05pm! Be sure to TiVo the game so you can look for you and your pink shirted mother in the crowd! Go Twins!

Minnesota Twins Schedule

The Minnesota Twins schedule really heats up in May for the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome. The Twins have 16 home games the month of May, more than any other month this Twins season. The Twins will host two premium series this month as well. First hosting the Boston Red Sox May 9th-12th and then welcoming the New York Yankees at the end of the month.

With all the continuous Twins action at the Metrodome, you can bet Twin Cities residents will be catching baseball fever! There are a lot of Internet sites to choose from when buying your Minnesota Twins Tickets – often local brokers have tickets at below face value near game time so check the sites the day of or the day before to get the best deal and get out to the Metrodome to see some Minnesota Twins baseball.
