Twins Fans Love Target Field's Metropolitan Club

Target Field has many new features that Minnesota Twins fans were not used to with the Metrodome. The Metropolitan Club is another new aspect of the stadium that Twins fans are loving. The Metropolitan Club is a place for full and partial season ticket holders to enjoy pregame dining and drinks or a place to watch the game. Quipped with a buffet, bar, floor to ceiling windows, the Metropolitan Club has been a smashing success. It is a luxurious area that season ticket holders get rewarded for. To gain entrance, one must show your "Metropolitan Club Card" that verifies you're a member. Hanging on the walls are old photographs of famous players playing in Minnesota, such as Babe Ruth, Willie Mays, and Ted Williams. It's located on the second level, right above Target Plaza.

Target Field Fireworks Rocked

Fireworks at a Twins Game. That wasn't exactly a theme at Twins games in the past 28 years at the Metrodome. The closed Teflon roof on the stadium didn't allow for post-game fireworks. After a 2-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday, July 2, Target Field sprayed the downtown Minneapolis skyline with fireworks. It exhibits how going to Target Field is more than just a game, it's an experience. The fireworks were set off on top of the parking ramp behind right field and adjacent to Target Plaza. Almost every fan stayed until the fireworks was lit off and crowds were watching outside the stadium. The fireworks lasted for 15 minutes.

Target Field Named #1 Stadium Experience by ESPN

ESPN the Magazine announced last week that Target Field is ranked #1 in the Stadium Experience category for all 4 professional leagues - MLB, NHL, NFL, and NBA. In the 8th Annual Ultimate Sports Standings, ESPN ranks all sports franchises and stadiums according to stadium experience, ownership, coaching, fan relations, players, and affordability.

June 29: One Busy Night with Justin Bieber and Detroit Tigers

Tonight will be one busy area around Target Center and Target Field. At the Target Center, 16 year-old singing sensation Justin Bieber will be performing, while at Target Field the Minnesota Twins will square off against the AL Central rival Detroit Tigers. Both events will be starting at 7:00 PM. This marks the first time that both stadiums will be used at the same time. Since the stadiums are located right next to eachother, the downtown area should be very busy. If you are planning on going to either event, it might be a good idea to plan on a longer traffic time to arrive. The weather is supposed to be clear for tonight, so Target Field should expect 40,000 while the Target Center can expect around 15,000 for the Justin Bieber concert. It will definitely be a busy spot tonight.
