Activities and Contests for Winter Meltdown are Revealed

Six of a Kind
Each attendee will receive six retro baseball cards when they enter. The goal is to trade with friend and strangers to get six players who have something in common: same team, same position, same pose, they all have facial hair, etc. Once they do they can trade them in for a raffle ticket. Especially difficult ones will get two raffle tickets. The raffle tickets will let you qualify for various prizes throughout the event, ranging from gift cards to bobbleheads.

Last Fan Standing
Every attendee will get a red and green card when they enter the event. Midway through the event we’ll play a trivia game in which each question has a true or false answer. As long as the attendee gets the answer correct, they get to keep standing and playing. If they get it wrong, they have to drop out. We keep going until we have a last fan standing to win a special prize.

This is not a passive event. We’ll be mixing and mingling and talking Twins and hot stove all night long. It’s the one time our readers and writers and other local media members can all come together, so we want to make the most of it. You won’t want to miss it, so here are all the details:

• The event takes place Twins Fest weekend, on Saturday, January 27th, 5-9 PM, at The Pourhouse, just three blocks from Target Field and Twins Fest!
• Every guest will receive two complimentary Forgotten Star craft beers, including our Twins Daily/Forgotten Star Ale Central Champs Pale Ale!
• Every guest will get the brilliant 2024 Winter Meltdown pint glass designed by Brock Beauchamp.
• Every guest will get a Twins Daily matchbook.
• For the first time our special guests will be active Twins players! We’ll have special appearances by Louis Varland and Matt Wallner and other notable guests for Q&A sessions and handshakes.
• This year, we have limited tickets available, only 250 in total, and for now, they are exclusively for Twins Daily Caretakers.

We’re STILL not done. Besides the activities and camaraderie, we’ll have some booths set up for sponsors that sports and especially baseball fans will want to visit. We’ll talk about those tomorrow, so follow us on Twitter and Facebook for more news, or stop by tomorrow to learn more.
