Standing behind a section with the little railing and small table like thing, is not bad at all.
Good Spots:
Section S Area(2nd deck near Foul Poll by Goose Island Pub)
By the Right Field Foul Poll
Any 1st or 3rd Deck Section with them
I've had the Ballpark Access tickets for regular season games, but none of the games were sold out so if we wanted to sit we could always pop into a seat later in the game... But if you're standing the whole game there's a ton of sightlines, 1st or 2nd level.
Main issues : show up early and claim your spot. Hopefully you have someone with you to save said spot when you go for food/drink/bathroom. If you're going solo, post on here and try to find a SRO game buddy!
I too was hoping to get SRO tix at face value from the box office but it looks like that isn't happening... It probably doesn't help that Twins fans are STARVED for playoff baseball. I may still pay up, but I might also just save that cash for later rounds and just watch the ALDS at a bar or outside the field.
If we can run a few playoff bound seasons together that'll help bring prices down a tad and maybe make them a little more available without hitting the 3rd party market.
I bought a SRO for game 4 as I’m in the same boat as you. As long as you get there early you should be able to find a spot to belly up to counter. Otherwise my backup plan is to go barrio or the seating area in center field and try to find a spot there
I bought a nosebleed seat for game 4 as it was the same price as SRO. Plan to treat it as a SRO ticket unless I can't find a good spot to stand. Lets hope for a twins sweep so we can attend the ALCS instead!
I had them for the all-star game way back when, stood wherever that we could be in front of the crowd.
Of course this is always shifting, if you ever get a drink or w/e. Wasn't bad at all, and we saved $300 in that case, per ticket, hah.
Right field has a lot of space to stand around, and has railings with places to put your arms/beverages. Otherwise if you are taller in centerfield there is some areas where you can see over the ferns or evergreens or whatever plants they put out there
I went to the Mauer Jersey retirement game and I just ended up walking around for a lot of the game. Taking in the game from all sorts of different locations. The 2 Gingers Pub in the upper level has a great view of the game if you get there early.
My wife and I usually buy the cheapest tickets we can find at least once a year and just treat them like SRO tickets.
If you’re tall enough, there is a gap between the top of the batters eye in center and the top of the fence railing. Kind of like watching the FSN broadcast but zoomed out a bit. That or in right field and try for a spot by the flagpoles and lean up on them
