• Am at game in our wheelchair accessible seats above section 207. We missed the first half inning which is for the best. #
• Lamest walkup music in MLB has gotta be Phil Collins before Nick Punto at bats. #

Magic Number Guy? Apparently he has a Twitter feed now.

And in case you were wondering, the magic number is 146.

• Hot here in the sun at Target Field in the Legends section in front of Dick&Bert. Good game so far. #

A few shots from our seats in section H during today’s game.

Larger versions after the cut.

I’ve finally uploaded the pictures from the Target Field open house that I went to last month.

• I'm getting ready already to head downtown for the game. Will be in section H, row 3, seat 3 (Legend's Club in front of press box) #
• This just in: Harmon Killebrew and Rod Carew are awesome. Oh wait, everybody knew that. #
• En route to ballpark via bus. Will miss the $5 parking lot a half block from Dome. Also not loving having to wear sunscreen. #
• Noticed press mob on field then realized they'd surrounded Joe-Ma. Our Legend's seats could not be more awesome. #
• 14 seats in our row but only 12 cupholders. Up 'til now I thought they'd thought of everything! Jeez! #
• Having technical difficulties posting from the ballpark #

It’s hard to believe this is really happening, but apparently we finally have a ballpark for the Twins and I’ll see it for myself for the first time today. Kevin attended one of the season ticket holder open houses. My parents went to one of the exhibition games versus the Cardinals. But the closest I’ve been to Target Field since they started building it is to see the scoreboard from 394 and elsewhere.

This afternoon I’ll head in there for the first time. When I watched the exhibition games, I couldn’t believe my eyes and that the stadium was really there. I kept turning to Kevin and saying “that’s really our ballpark? It’s in Minnesota?”

I’ll be in our Legend’s Club seats today with my parents. Section H, row 3, seat 3 is where I’ll be. Wow. My husband Kevin has to work today, but will join us there as soon as he can, probably an hour or 90 minutes into the game. (My Dad splits tickets there with other groups so we’ll be seeing maybe 18-20 games there this season. Our other season tickets are in section 223 207.)

I’ll probably post to the WinTwins Twitter feed from the game unless I get too into the proceedings to tweet.

If anyone wants to post thoughts during the game in comments on this post, feel free. I’ll likely post something here after the game or maybe Kevin will.

They’re already doing pre-game coverage on FSN and the game will air there locally. Nationally ESPN will carry the game starting at 3pm central time.
