Target Field Tour
I am so far behind on posting pictures from our busy summer. Here is one of my catch-ups. When we were in MN in June the Twins were out of town so we didn't get to see a game in the new stadium, but we did get to take a behind-the-scenes tour. It was really cool!

Each of the five gates is numbered after former Twins greats. This was Hrbek's gate.

The "Golden Glove" sits 520 feet from home plate - the distance of Killebrew's longest home run.

Just cute!

The view from the club level.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz4YnGfZPyvC-HEgBAKbp7cm7EMLpJcbknhgBC-D8mbg-P2wiYmGs7kEyv5fBmiVsxvUPfDXWWI462U5RZM_-p7latbvjJ-lhSlq7lnFX4Wh8DVnmDvQm5iBK-O46NUOpjZsm7-PpGHro/s320/IMG_4088.JPG)
And the $300+ seats behind home plate.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEMCZnd5nQlIpEDuaHV1w50ANr3PICvbols4Wgbb95eFVEhMXTnJbsPvqpDhMD4qjs8GyV5qHnLwuY8-LH2fIaqiRSRyERM92azReAfiXDUj2fBICfsYIu7QMUFw2k6o1omkVoUWmrf-M/s320/IMG_4118.JPG)
The Champions Club - we saw the World Series trophies in here.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDcjaw6vFSPeZV1FRZhIX0ZDtc5m6c3YB1h_1K8PHltt2ZNf09zx9BvUjwNu_AgH7iIqKuDTSLGvPNCzIXl4ZMb286Bn4g6SBhDo9MCGkyl1CitB-cCvweUNw7DgYqAsWMOIxyoV-ZyGE/s320/IMG_4108.JPG)
This was my favorite part - the large kegerators that pump beer up to the concession stands (no more hauling kegs around amongst the crowd)!
Cool wall art.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP_22hyhk6jNTUxPcX4yNeRQugNfG9mNpALvO0hJlBQxVamFLx4hnL-dUjJRzCzZuXOhBKK0vXDWRitiY8No6plP2klPrjoaTCSZf08j6T7OJ_mnZMy-8Iy0VZqMtRKMdNO6OvKJQE8eA/s320/IMG_4106.JPG)
And we made it on to the field - but NOT on the grass!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvgdTlzWQXVBGCQS_aawkDppgwvdSSm7ym6epLHtkORstqnXTbSsTZY8xWTjjkYNvDuwEOK23J9vy7aoS4SrzJKQWenbKizN8AME1XvW9HHBmQqm8A2U1puAndaYUKPMYXgJWgKQz4w8w/s320/IMG_4126.JPG)

In the visiting team's dugout.
It was fun to see. Quite nice, but I wouldn't want to be at an outdoor game this weekend (with the excessive heat warning!)!
