On Saturday, the Twins announced that tickets to Games 3 and 4 at Target Field next week are officially sold out.

Games 3 and 4 tickets went on sale at noon on Friday, October 6, and lower-level tickets to Game 3 were gone within minutes. By Saturday, all tickets to both games were gone. 

It’s a tale of two series: for the Wildcard round last week, tickets to Tuesday, October 3’s game were going for as low as $7 on resale sites. While the team announced that both Wildcard games were sold out, there were still patches of empty seats despite an impressive and raucous crowd. Once the Twins won Game 1 vs. the Blue Jays to break “the streak,” tickets to Wednesday’s game jumped to around $50 for the cheapest ticket. 

Games 1 and 2’s in-person environment was the loudest and most exciting Twins fans and players can remember. Twins fans were into every pitch. 

“When I tell you it was electric, it brought that electricity into my body,” Royce Lewis said after Tuesday’s win. 

Tickets are still available to ALDS Games 3 and 4 on some resale sites. Because Tuesday’s game is a sure thing, those tickets are more expensive than Game 4. 

For Twins fans wanting to get to Target Field to be among other fans on a budget, the Twins are hosting free watch parties of Game 1 and Game 2 of the ALDS in Houston. On Saturday, the Twins hosted over 10,000 fans for the Game 1 watch party. Fans watched the game on the big screen and could visit concession stands and the team store, which are open for both watch parties

I will be at game three. I am able to do so because I am one of the woebegone few that have had season tickets since they opened the joint. My family has had several interventions with me on this issue. But sometimes you just can't help these people.

Hang tough - hopefully, you’ll be able to gloat about keeping the tickets at Thanksgiving!!!

Go TWINS!

Tell me about it. I missed Correa's throw to the plate to nail Bichette. Everyone in front of me stood up and these  75 yr old legs and hips couldn't react as quickly. Young whipper snappers. 😉

I didn't mind a bit. Place had the energy that I have only witnessed at Wrigley.. Great crowd.

It pays to be stubborn on the important things.

Fights over season tix at Thanksgiving are far superior to political and religious arguments.

Anticipation and instinct are key.  Carlos would tell you the same thing!

What are turkeys thankful for at Thanksgiving? Vegetarians.

You can use that joke as you see fit.

I would have had to begun anticipating an hour before to have made it. My wife would tell you the same thing <winks>.

The atmosphere was incredible and actively helped the team on Wednesday as seen by the Blue Jays being unable to hear their third base coach. Incredible
