Dumbest Opponent Ever

It's hard to say exactly how this will turn out, but I'll be pretty surprised if they can't sell 20-25K tickets and I think more is possible. As has been stated, there are a lot of fans in MN that can't go to games and this is in their backyard.

Yes, the football game will be poor. Two of the three first games this year have been as well and this game will have the unique element of Target Field in downtown MSP. I realize there are some that aren't excited by that at all, but many others are very excited about it.

If they play their cards right, they can make this into a spectacular event. I've heard they're trying to make it a "weekend" or full day of stuff but I don't have any details on that.

I'm not sure how/if there will be tailgating but to me this is a different experience and more about bar-gating due to the unique location.

Try something new, embrace the experience, get a passpo.......wait, I'm getting a little off here so I'll stop now.

with a minnesota drivers license, I may need a passport.

Interesting dialog...

It seems to me that a game being discussed two years in advance is a bigger deal that most would admit. That said, I can only speak for myself. And my extended family. Should be one hell of a good time.

According to lakes 5k bison fans went to ndsu night the twins hosted. Just think how many will show for football

I think someone at NDSU did provide a rough estimate. I want to say it was a couple thousand? Being there it was pretty impressive.

The more I think about this, the more I think this game is going to be huge. I'm changing my number to 25-30K.

Spearmint Rhino after party?

Vote for The Seville

There will be a lot of alumni there and a ton of players family and friends...Probably some people curious just to watch the Bison play as well. It is a big city after all.

Not worried about this game not selling at all, the opponent doesn't really matter.

Not true, we just played UN_ a few years back.

I'm changing my vote. Seville is better and closer. Easy stumbling distance to several other great bars.

Not that I have...er my friends have told me. Plus you can go over to Kieran's Pub across from the Target Center and ask the bartender for a pass that will get you and your friends in without a cover charge...or at least that's what my friend has told me.
