Twins "Garage Sale" at the Dome!

Since I decided to hunt muzzleloader instead of shotgun I figured I would go down to the Twins garage sale at the dome today. Got there at about 9 and the line was LONG but I was in the third group in. Picked up the 2007 Bobblehead set, a TC Bear bobble head, 1991 World Series media guides and Kirby Puckett HOF media guide, 1987 Champions mural painting #'d to 500. I got #7 of 500!!!!!, A game worn Twins hat, 10 pennants, and a few other goodies. I left around 11:45 after waiting 45 minutes to pay for my stuff. Got outside and the line to get in still wrapped around the dome!!!!!

- I missed out on the bats, fishing lures and poles, huge banners, etc. LOTS OF COOL COLLECTIBLES THOUGH! People spent $1000's of dollars in there today!

Anyone else go? What did you find?

I spent $101 total on my stuff which was nothing really. Went with about $60 and had to hit up the ATM. Not sure on the hat it was an official batting practice one made by New Era and has 13 written on the underside of the bill. They had a bunch, some were really dirty with sweat bands and everything but the one I got was really clean and for $10 it was well worth it! They all got sold they also had game used jerseys for $125 but it was bench coaches and Chad Liddle when I got there. They had other jerseys for around $50 all stitched though. Just a lot of really cool stuff!

I bought a Twins pitching staff alphabet for my daughter. Weird thing was the Letters E,R,A were inflated and it didn't come with any K's

Rimshot!

I heard that on the Common Man Progrum as well.

I bought a Pair of Delmon Young's cleats, I needed help carrying them to my car since they weighed 90 pounds each.

That was a pretty good pro-grum on the monday after the sale. A few others I thought of....

I went and found old All Star Ballots from 1996 to 1999 that had a Twins player listed on it.

I found a broken Brad Radke bobble head, the head just swiveled to turn and watch balls leave the park!

From the show...

A Gomez bat missing the sweet spot

A Ron Coomer diet guide book

A Nick Punto baserunning DVD (Not intended for kids)

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
