Twins Tickets for Sale

One of my buddies decided to buy a Twins season ticket package just to get his name on the priority list for the new Twins ballpark. He bought a pair of tickets in section 132 row 15. He bought the Gold Glove package which is a group of pretty good games including the Saturday June 28th match-up vs the Milwaukee Brewers which happens to be mini-Michael Cuddyer Wind-Up Walker night! I have sat in section 132 before and they are great seats. In fact, 132 and 133 are some of my favorite seats because you are right by the Twins dugout and you get great views of the Twins players warming up.

My buddy decided he wanted to get rid of some of the Twins tickets to help with the expense so he tried calling local ticket broker Ticket King. The Ticket King rep said they would pay face value for the Red Sox, Yankees or Brewers game, but that they weren’t interested in anything else at this time. I guess Twins ticket demand is down…do you suppose it is because the Twins lost two of their stars and Twins fans don’t remember that we still have the super stars of Justin Morneau, Joe Mauer, Francisco Liriano and Joe Nathan? I am guessing that if the Twins come out of the gate and win a few in a row, Twins tickets will become a lot more valuable. Anyone care to comment?
