Boardwalk of Games
You can have a lot of fun by yourself with games like Pop-Ashot, Guess Who?, Speed Pitch, Giant Jenga and Human Foosball, but you might have more fun watching players like Miguel Sano and Brian Dozier take part in the games. The links above will get you info on which players will be participating each day.
Kids Day Sunday
Sunday is Kids Day and the first 1,000 kids 14 or younger will receive a free Twins stocking cap.
Tickets needed for popular autograph sessions
Some of the most popular players will undoubtedly draw bigger crowds, and those are the lines that you’ll likely need a numbered ticket to get an autograph. These tickets are free, but since players can only sign for a certain amount of time, the line will be cut off at a specific number when their time is up.
