I became a Twins fan in 1961, listening to games with my grandparents. I think the games were on WCCO. Went to my first game in 1963 again with my grandparents. I was very fortunate as I was in the stands at the Met for the World Series in 1965 and the Dome for the '87 series. I grew up as an overweight kid, my favorite player was Harmon Killebrew. He was described as the "Husky" first baseman and he was a spokesman for Kemps Ice Cream. I have no idea how many Schweighert hot dogs I ate while sitting in the stands. I still sing the Schweighert jingle on occasion, drives my wife crazy! I moved to Fort Myers in 1990. Worked at Hammond Stadium hawking beer for Spring Training throughout the 90's. I worked for the Miracle for several years as well! Mike Veeck is one of the funniest people I've ever met! I've followed the Twins for 62 years and baseball is the only sport I really care for! Through thick and thin I am a die hard fan, first, last, and always! I am not at all ashamed to say I Love The Twins!!!
