Come Commiserate and Hope: Join Us at Mortimer's for Twins Daily's Watch Party Next Tuesday

[Nick Nelson]

This team has been no fun to watch. So let's make our own fun.

Let’s be real: being a Twins fan right now feels like volunteering to get punched in the gut every night at around 7 PM. We’re watching the follow-up to a long-awaited playoff breakthrough spiral into one of the bleakest stretches in franchise memory. The vibes? Bad. The broadcasts? Barely accessible. The product? You already know.

And yet… here we are. Still watching. Still caring. Still showing up — because that’s what fans do.

At Twins Daily, we’ve never needed wins to have fun. The site launched in spring of 2012, fresh off the first of four straight 90-loss campaigns. Our first several years were spent chronicling and laughing through double-digit deficits, bewildering roster moves, and last-place finishes. In fact, one of our all-time most beloved community events was the 2016 pregame pub crawl, when the only compelling storyline attached to the main event was whether or not the Twins would tally their 100th loss. 

We were losing, but we weren’t alone.

Next Tuesday, April 29th, we invite you to recapture that same spirit with us at Mortimer’s Bar in Minneapolis, as we host a Twins Daily Social Club watch party for the 5:10 PM game against the Guardians.

Yes, the team is struggling. Yes, morale is low. But that’s exactly why this is the time to gather. When the stands are empty and the outlook is grim, it’s the perfect moment to pull together and remember why we do this in the first place. For the camaraderie. For the banter. For the fleeting glimmers of hope. For that one big swing that suddenly gets everyone leaning forward again.

Come for the cold beer and hot pizza, stay for the shared misery — and maybe, just maybe, the beginning of a turnaround. Who knows? Years from now, you might get to say you were with us when the historic reversal began.
