Otto von Ballpark Old-Timey Member Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Dollar Dog games for 2019 are still listed here: https://www.mlb.com/twins/tickets/promotions Every Wednesday game seems to be denoted with "Game Highlight: Schweigert™ Dollar-A-Dog Day".
Otto von Ballpark Old-Timey Member Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 I have to say, though, that as a fan of Dollar Dog games, your post just about gave me a heart attack. And I'd prefer to achieve my heart attack through more Dollar Dog games.
hybridbear Verified Member Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 I don't see this promotion on the schedule for 2020. Has it been removed for the 2020 season?
spanman2 Verified Member Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 They finally ran out of the leftovers from the Metrodome...just busting chops I thought it was kind of funny.
Twins33 Verified Member Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 I don't see this promotion on the schedule for 2020. Has it been removed for the 2020 season?Looks like it. Looks like they replaced it with more all you can eat days. https://www.mlb.com/twins/tickets/specials/daily-specials
Shaitan Verified Member Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 It's not even opening day yet and I'm booing the home team.
Yoke Verified Member Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 They finally ran out of the leftovers from the Metrodome...just busting chops I thought it was kind of funny.Should have let my high school buddies work more concession stand dates. Wouldn't have had as many leftovers We worked one game and a guy walked out with 9. Ate them all. We became familiar with local gas stations on the way home.
Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 I could really go for a Dome Dog right about now...
Teflon Verified Member Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 I could really go for a Dome Dog right about now... Odd coincidence. When the Teflon roof of the Metrodome was sealed up, large quantities of pigeons were trapped inside. The Metropolitan Sports Commission hired a company to "deal with the issue." Shortly thereafter, Dome Dogs first appeared.
darin617 Verified Member Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Maybe they will have .50 hotdog days when Houston comes to town so they can all get the Chuck Knoblauch treatment.
Brock Beauchamp Site Manager Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 It's a shame if they get rid of that promotion. Even if they made it $2 dogs, it's still fun and I'd still order an excessive amount just because it's fun. Ordering eight hot dogs at a time just because it costs you less than $10 is pretty funny. That wouldn't really change if it cost less than $20.
hybridbear Verified Member Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 That’s disappointing. We only went to Wednesday games because that’s the only day we could afford to eat at the stadium. But if they killed dollar dog night then I guess we won’t be able to go to any games this year.

But if they killed dollar dog night then I guess we won’t be able to go to any games this year. Last season they put a cheaper concession stand in right field. You have to use the self serve kiosk when you order and pay with credit/debit card. The prices are about 50% off so you can get by with something like a hot dog & chips for about $5/person. Then, in left field, Budweiser has a booth where you can pledge not to drink and drive and they will give you a coupon for a free soda. Also, you can still bring your own food into Target Field. Just some thoughts to make it more affordable for you, it's what I do.

And I don't think that comes with chips (I think chips are only included with the "The Big Dog" at regular concession stands for $7). https://www.mlb.com/twins/news/target-field-family-friendly-concessions-pricing https://www.mlb.com/twins/ballpark/concessions#hotdogs But I endorse the designated driver free soda coupons -- you can get them in left field lower deck behind section 130, or on the third base side upper deck behind sections 222/322.

I'd like to see someone send their 10 yr old there and tell the person they promise not to drink and drive and see if they give him/her a coupon. And what's with this soda talk? It's pop!
MMMordabito Verified Member Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Maybe they will have .50 hotdog days when Houston comes to town so they can all get the Chuck Knoblauch treatment. It will be 60th season weekend, so they might have to be 60 cents.

And what's with this soda talk? It's pop! I think you have to be 21+ for the free pop from Budweiser. They used to check IDs, yet seemed to stop last season. One other cheap food option I forgot is the family section. Tickets in the family section has a free soda and hot dog built into the cost of the ticket so it's a great deal. I still stand tall on the value of the family confession stand. You could get a hot dog, soda, and peanuts/popcorn there for $9 in 2019 (nearly 50% odf) since the same treats were $17.50 at the standard concession stand. Here are the 2019 prices from the link spycake provided: Hot dogs -- Family value: $4 | Regular: $5• Peanuts/popcorn -- Family value: $3 | Regular: $6• Soft pretzels -- Family value (two soft pretzel sticks): $4 | Regular (pretzel with cheese): $7• Nachos -- Family value: $4 | Regular (slightly larger size): $7• Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Sierra Mist -- Family value (16 oz.): $2 | Regular (24 oz.): $6.50• Budweiser, Bud Light -- Family value (12 oz.): $5 | Regular (20 oz.): $9
John Kelsey Verified Member Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 I probably ate about 20-30 of these a year, so I'm pretty heartbroken.

I could reminisce about Student night/dollar dog nights... the good ol days when the bus, tickets, dogs and one beer each for two people was less than $20.
