Last year's game at Target Field was fun (except for the score of course). Is there any chance that the Gophers could play there again? The Gophers could play there when the Twins had a game on the road.

I doubt it. I don't think the Twins would see any value to it, whereas last year they used it as a 'dry run'. That is unless we schedule a big rivalry game like against Wisconsin.

Since it's taking forever in repairing the Metrodome roof, the Twins have offered the Gophers a chance to play in their stadium during the first week or two in April. I could see this happening if the dome is not repaired by then.

My one regret about the the game at Target Field was that I didn't try out the super-luxury seats behind home plate. We went around the whole stadium, trying the view from many different sections, but didn't set down in those seats. I'd never be able to justify the cost of those seats for a Twins game.
