The Twins ticket office is really pushing the new stadium.  Of course they are going to, but its almost as if 2009 doesn't exist.  It started when I got my TC 2010 hard hat with the 2008 season ticket renewal package.  Then all of last year there was the countdown to the new stadium in the middle of the sixth inning.  It seems most would do that the last season only, but the Twins pushed it to two seasons.

Last Thursday I got my 2009 season ticket renewal package.  This is after I already got a 2010 ticket priority explanation package.  Thats right, I got 2010 before 2009, by about a month.  Both are great and have really cool renditions of Target Field.  But its starting to feel a little much.  Below are pictures of the package for 2009.

Large box giving no doubt who its from:

Opened the cover to see:

I should have guessed it contained this:

There are a bunch of other cool pictures but this is my favorite:

I still haven't decided what I am doing for 2009.  I can have my same tickets and seats as last year (All Star Plan, Lower Reserved Section 133 row 17 seats 9-10) if I want it, but I don't think I am going to do that.  If nothing else I might see if I can move closer to the field and the aisle.  I have to make a deposit by 1/9/09, so I have some time.  As I've mentioned before, I need to find a way to get to the Home Opener and Home Closer.

Well this is the end of having all the extra free time.  Tomorrow is the Champlin Park Drumline info meeting and then rehearsals start later in the week.  It's been really nice but I've been really lazy.  I remember when I figured out I would have "all this time" and all the plans of what I was going to do, needless to say it didn't all happen.  Then before I know it Brass will start up and I'll have both going for a few months.

I'm not surprised the Vikes managed to lose. I'm not a fan of Childress.
