Those classifications of ticket holders have received a separate ticket application in the mail. Games and Dates Game dates and times for the ALDS and ALCS will be determined and announced at a later date. Should the Twins represent the American League in the World Series, they will host the National League Champion on October 18 and 19 in games one and two, and October 25 and 26 should games six and seven be necessary. Refund Instructions In the event the game designated on the face hereof is not played, the amount printed on the face hereof will be refunded when this ticket is mailed to: Minnesota Twins Ticket Office P.O. Box 581909 Minneapolis, MN 55458-1909 Refund requests must include name, address and daytime phone number and must be postmarked no later than November 30, 2003. Allow six to eight weeks for processing. The Minnesota Twins will not be responsible for tickets lost in transit. The Twins suggest tickets be mailed in a method which provides evidence of receipt. FAILURE TO CLAIM SAID REFUND BY NOVEMBER 30, 2003, WILL CONSTITUTE WAIVER OF ALL RIGHTS TO ANY REFUND, EXCHANGE AND/OR CREDIT. Okay, I know most teams do this, and at least these guys have a refund system, but this is the first I've seen this year. First of all, as of this typing, the Twins aren't even going to make the play offs. Sure, they are in contention for the division, but they're not winning (And no where near the wild card) It would make more sense if they were hanging on to a shaky lead, not trying to chip away at one. Anyway, moving away from the Twins and on to all teams, even if you were the biggest fan in the world, would you spend eight hundred dollars for eleven games when exactly zero are going to occur? I don't care if it's refundable a month down the line, that's a LOT to spend on a gamble in the here and now, especially for the average baseball fan.

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 I wouldn't pay for them personally, but it seems like a good way to portion tickets. High risk = good seats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 At the rate things are going, by the time you got the tickets in the mail, you would probably need to turn around and mail em back for the refund cause the Twins won't even make the playoffs. So, even though youd get the full refund back, its still gonna cost you $3-4 to mail em back with delivery confirmation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 To anyone who has been to the Metrodome: How big is the difference between the seats in the lower and upper pavillions? It seems pretty ridiculous that there is a three hundred dollar difference between the worst and next to worst sections of seats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They weren't great but not 300 dollars worse than the lower deck. The Twins chances of making the playoffs would increase if they would be WHITE SOX. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
treble 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 I've heard that some of the best seats in the Metrodome baseball-wise are in the upper deck in the outfield, right over where the football press boxes are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
