Minnesota Twins Countdown to Goodbye Starts this weekend

A packed Metrodome for a Twins Game
We all knew it was coming, the end of the season has been looming since the Twins Home Opener. Yet, even so it is hard to write that we are now a mere 6 home series away from saying goodbye to the Metrodome-Twins relationship. While Target Field is going to be nice and shiny and new, in my opinion it will never be the Metrodome. The Metrodome holds so many fond memories, not just for me (though it is one of the first Minnesotan things I loved when I moved here) but for the Twins as well... Kerby Pucket played there, we won championships there, but mostly it just feels like it should be the Home of the Twins.


If you are like me and having a hard time picturing the Minnesota Twins without the Metrodome, I suggest getting Metrodome Tickets as soon as possible for this weekend's series against the Texas Rangers or buying tickets early for any of the other remaining Metrodome Twins Games, because while there are still tickets left now, I predict that as that fateful day approaches there will be a rush of nostalgia that sells out the Metrodome.
