For Kristin’s birthday I gave her some tickets for the Twins game on the 11th versus the White Sox. She was nice enough to take me along! 🙂
It felt a little like going to a football game in October, being that it was a little windy and in the low 50’s to high 40’s. Outside of the temps, the outdoor stadium feel is great and it just seems like the field has a lot more character versus the old, tired dome. We were on the bottom tier in the right outfield (section 134) and I would suggest anywhere in that tier to someone who is looking to play it safe in buying advance tickets as they are covered against rain and should be shady if the sun is in full force.
It was a pretty good place to sit, we had a few hits come right us. It would be quite the hit to homer there though, the wall is really tall compared to the one in left field.
It was a good time. I’d recommend trying to get some tickets right from the Twins site, StubHub seems to have a pretty solid mark-up margin right now.
