    Also, when I called in to get my pair of tickets for the Target field game, I asked how the sales are going, and the guy said "I'm not really allowed to tell you how many are left, but the only tickets left are in the upper deck, its a sellout in the lower bowl, Its definitely going to be a packed house"
    I asked where I could get a pair of tickets and he gave me 4 sections in the upper deck, all next to eachother. make of that what you will
    Depending on the weather that day the upper deck may not be all that bad a place to be. Lots of breeze up there (if there is any) and a nice view of the city in case the action on the field is less than riveting.

    I'll probably wander down there too. Just checked vividseats.com and there are lots of seating options available there.

    I should be there.
    I don't care how the vote ended up. They still suck and always will.

    I'm not sure how far off he is, but keep in mind, that the NDSU home game for the Goofers was by far their biggest draw:

    Bowling Green 49,253
    Miami (OH) 45,383
    Purdue 47,483
    Ohio State 51,611
    NDSU 63,088
    Illinois 46,604
    Wisconsin 59,116

    I'm not sure how many people for each game were Goofer fans, but I'll guess they had at least a core group of 40,000 each game. With that, I guess NDSU brought 20,000 to 25,000. Considering this was 2007 during the DI transition and in between the the 80s and current run of Championships, that's pretty impressive.

    If I remember right it was estimated to be about 30K at the time. I think that's realistic. So this game could outdraw it, we'll see.

    Going through the nine sections that have seats available in the diagram below from the Twins’ ticket site, I estimate there are between 1,500 and 2,000 seats available.



    I’m not going to count the secondary market seats since those seats are already paid for in regards to determining if this game will be a sell-out.

    I’ll be enjoying this game from Section 2.

    Kolpack was fairly bullish on Target Field crowd size on the podcast. He said the Athletic Department expects a sellout. I'll still be surprised if attendance tops 35K, but anything over 30K is very impressive considering the opponent.
