Rau, I may have some extra PSA subs if you still had some stuff to send in, no charge.

Think I should even waste my time with the Cuddy Gold? Just so its in a nice protective case. Not going to sell it or move it so Im of the thinking of yes.

It was originally a PSA 9.

dam too bad it got cracked out.

Gate 29 the lines go down to Target Center, but ppl are spread out.
By 4 PM it will be packed IMO

How many thousand would you say are there so far?

 

[TwinsWin]

I'm right by the majestic store about 100 back

In the 29 entrance I'd say there is about 500 hundred it doesn't quite reach the target center

Have to remember I can only see 29 and 34, cant see the other 3 gates.
Best guess is 500-1000 right now around the plaza gates.
You might just get lucky and get a bobble if you show up around 430.
Wonder if the Twins ****** season is having an effect on crowds.
Hasnt mattered in the past........hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Gate 34 looks to be the largest going all the way to the skywalk

It's going to be fast best bet might by gate3 or 14

Seriously, its all a guessing game
Could be a mad rush in 20 mins or may be no one.

Which gates enter where? I always go to the same gate each game, haven't been to any of the others. And how well do visiting teams normally sign? I've got my Sox picture signed by Ozzie, might bring it along for this game.

Chris - got the cards - thanks again man!!

About to head out with my son. Takes us about 1 hour, 40 min to get to downtown, park, then take the train (or walk) over. We're cheap: pay $4 to park in the Gov't Center ramp, then ride the train down for fitty cents. If we get one, we're happy, if we don't we're okay. Should be agreat atmosphere tonight. Sox on a 7 game losing streak, Blackburn has ruled the Sox so far this year. Odds look good for us--even with Buehrle pitching!

Well.. We ARE (for SURE) going to the Glen Perkins signing. We may be able to by-pass the morning traffic as well if we do it right. I am going to take a couple cards since I wasn't able to land anything on eBay.

We may also catch the game on Sunday. It will be our last game of the year (our first as well). I may graph the Twins, but I don't know. I don't think I will have much luck.

Kinda un-related, but I am going to the Willmar Stingers game on Tuesday against the St. Cloud River Bats. The goal is to graph Michael Lorenzen on 3 items. It shouldn't be too hard because this winter they put in seating about the opposing team's dugout. Has anyone ever graphed an NWL team before with a USA player? I don't think I should have a problem with it. We get in when the gates open so we would head straight over there and graph him, and then get our seats.

How's the line looking now? I'll be heading out in a few minutes
