10 Reasons Target Field Will Always Be The Best Ballpark

Minnesota may be the home to hockey but it's also home to one of the best ballparks in the United States. Target Field is the perfect place to enjoy a ballpark frank, a cold beer and some good old baseball. Here are ten reasons why Target Field will always be the best ballpark.

1. Izzy's Ice Cream

With over 100 different flavors of ice cream to choose from and endless amounts of toppings, not to mention that it's locally owned, who wouldn't want to enjoy Izzy's Ice Cream on a hot summer day at Target Field?

2. Golden Glove photo op

This giant golden glove recognizes the Twins players who have won the Gold Glove Award. Including players such as, Torii Hunter, Joe Mauer and the one and only Kirby Puckett. This is a must do photo op when attending a game.

3. Fireworks

Enjoy the spectacular show of fireworks with the beautiful background of the city after the game.

4. Killebrew Root Beer

Granted you can get Killebrew Root Beer other places, it just feels right to drink a nice cold Killebrew at the good ole' ballpark. I would recommend trying the Killebrew Cream soda, too!

5. Helmet nachos

Chips, a layer of meat and nacho cheese and topped with your toppings of choice, all inside of a Twins helmet. This is a fan favorite when it comes to foods at Target Field.

6. Circle Me Bert signs

Former Twins player, Bert Blyleven, is the announcer for the Minnesota Twins games on Fox Sports North. All fans know that the "Circle Me Bert" signs are a must if you want to be physically circled on TV.

7. Mascot race

This is one event that is fun for all ages to watch and is one you'll always remember. How it works is you pick your prediction on who you think is going to win on your mobile device and you get to watch the mascots actually race on the field. If your mascot wins, you win!

8. Minnie and Paul

Minnie and Paul are an icon in the Minnesota Twins world. This sign is very unique, when the Twins hit a home run or if the Twins win, Minnie and Paul shake hands.

9. The Stadium Itself

I mean seriously, just look at how beautiful the stadium is. With the view of the Minneapolis skyline and the gorgeous limestone, it makes it one of the most beautiful ballparks. There's no roof, but the stadium is heated when Minnesota weather calls.

10. Home of the Twins

In my opinion, the number one reason Target Field is the best stadium is the fact that it's home to the Twins. Minnesotan's love their Twins and love being a part of the fun and memories that are made at Target Field.


If you live in Minnesota and haven't made a trip to Target Field yet, buy tickets online and see what the hype is all about!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
