Twins ready for Final Metrodome Season

The Minnesota Twins are gearing up for their final season at the Metrodome. They have released their 2009 Twins season logo which includes a Metrodome graphic and the years 1982 and 2009 on the side banners representing the first year at the Dome and their last, respectively. The Minnesota Twins schedule is even out already if you want to buy Twins tickets for their final season at the Metrodome.

I like this quote from Twins Pitcher Glen Perkins:

"When you think of baseball in Minnesota, you think of the Metrodome, but at the same time, I think it's good we are getting a new stadium. I think it's really going to help up as a team to have that excitement. I'm looking forward to it."

I am sure Twins baseball fans are looking forward to it as well. I know the Twins will be planning special Metrodome events to commemorate the final Twins season at the Dome. I will keep you posted.

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 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.

Metrodome Baseball

The Boys of Summer are back! The Metrodome has hosted 4 Minnesota Twins baseball series so far this year. The Twins came out strong in the opener whipping the Anaheim Angels, but the rest of the month the Twins have hovered around .500 even at home. Let’s hope the Twins can pick up the pace and gain some momentum and added Twins fan support or the Metrodome might become a lonely ballpark.

Metrodome Twins Schedule Busy First Week

The Opening Week of MLB is a big deal for all baseball fans, but it is a really big deal for the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome as the Minnesota Twins host 7 straight games. First a four game series vs the Anaheim Angels and Torii Hunter and then a three day series against division rival Kansas City Royals. The Metrodome staff will have to be on their “A” game as they deal with the influx of people in and around the Metrodome. Personally, I love the fact that the boys of summer (although it looks more like winter) are back in Minnesota and playing at the HHH Metrodome.

Minnesota Twins Territory

It won’t be long and the Hubert H Humphrey will be Twin Territory. The Minnesota Twins open their season in less than three weeks vs. the Anaheim Angels on Monday March 31st. The Twins Schedule is busy the first month of April at the Metrodome. The Twins play a total of 12 games in the month of April at the Metrodome and Twins fans won’t want to pass up the chance to see the new team under the white Teflon roof of the HHH Metrodome. The boys of summer will be back before you know it and the Metrodome will once again be filled with Minnesota sports fanatics! Go Twins!

Minnesota Twins Tickets at Metrodome

I wrote on my twin cities tickets blog that Minnesota Twins tickets are super expensive for Opening Day! You can bet that the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome will be rocking on March 31st as the Minnesota Twins host the Los Angeles Angels. I love Opening Day - will see you at the dome!

Metrodome and the New Twins Ballpark

Despite the event list being sparse for the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome over the next month, the Metrodome still manages to make the news. For example, the Minnesota Twins have a really interesting comparison of their new Twins Ballpark vs. the Metrodome. Some of my favorite facts include:

New Ballpark vs (Metrodome)
-Total Seating: 42,000 (56,000) *will create higher ticket demand*
-Home Plate to First Row Spectator: 50 feet (58 feet) *fans will be closer to the game*
-Seats with Obstructed Views: 0 (1,392)
-Main Concourse width: 44 feet (20 feet) *more room to buy stuff and still see the game*
-Total Restrooms: 34 (16) *shorter lines*

The Metrodome is really suited more for Vikings football than anything else, but it will be sad to see the Minnesota Twins move. The Twins have made many great memories at the Metrodome including two World Series Championships. This Twins season should be a fun season as fans prepare to say good-bye to the “Homerdome.”

Minnesota Twins Tickets

I recently took a look at the upcoming Minnesota Twins Schedule and one game stood out as a "must see" game. The Minnesota Twins open their home schedule with a game on 3/31/2008 versus Torii Hunter and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. I am a big fan of home openers but couple the fact that it is a home opener with the return of Hunter and there is absolutely no shot that I will miss this game. In fact, I may actually splurge buy some fancy Twins Tickets for this game. I am very interested to see what type of reception Torii Hunter receives after his departure to the Angels. I am also excited to check out the new Minnesota Twins and what they can do. GO TWINS!!!

Vikings lose, Metrodome empties out

The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Washington Redskins at the Metrodome on Sunday night and lost the chance to secure a playoff spot. It is highly unlikely that the Vikings will make the playoffs and even if they do a home playoff game is next to impossible…that being said the Metrodome will be mighty quiet until the Minnesota Twins opener on March 31st…don’t get me wrong there is a home and landscape show scheduled the month of January and the annual Twins fest always draws a crowd, but not the 60,000 fans the Metrodome would draw in a Vikings playoff game.

Minnesota Twins Schedule

The Minnesota Twins Schedule has been released for their home games at the Metrodome in Minneapolis, MN. The highlights of the schedule are the Minnesota Twins games versus the New York Yankees on 5/31-6/1 and the Minnesota Twins versus the the Boston Red Sox 5/9-5/12. There are also "must see" Minnesota Twins games versus Torii Hunter and the Anaheim Angles 3/31-4/3. As the nasty weather hits us in the state of Minnesota, it is nice to dream of summer days at the HHH Metrodome in Minneapolis watching the Minnesota Twins. Don't worry, it is only four months until you can use your Twins Tickets at the Metrodome.
