Twins offer a Suite deal to fans in '06
02/17/2006
Much was made of the fact that the Twins lawsuit against their public landlord made it possible for the team to be free of its lease anytime following the 2006 season. But the decision also had a more immediate impact that could help enhance the way some fans are able to watch Twins games.
With the ruling, the Twins are now able to offer fans two premium suite options during the 2006 season.
It's the first time that the team has been able to offer different amenities that cater to businesses and groups of fans alike in their offerings. Both offer wider cushioned stadium-styled seats, private restrooms, and concierge service to fans. Food and beverage catering options are also available with a full service bar, appetizers, main-course dining and dessert selections.
"We are excited to finally be able to provide our fans with a first class premium seating option," said Twins vice president of sales and service Steve Smith. "It's something that other teams like the Timberwolves and Wild take for granted but now it's an option that our fans can enjoy as well."
One suite is currently under construction while the other was finished this past summer. The completed suite, Terrace Suite I, is located adjacent to the Home Run Porch out in left field.
This option is available to fans who would like to have a large group setting on a one-game basis. The suite accommodates groups ranging between 53 and 125 people. One of the perks of the deal is also that the coordinator of the group will receive an autographed bat and ball.
"The suite has the ability to be divided into two rooms as well for smaller groups," Smith said. "It has the same amenities as the other suite but on a single-game basis."
The second terrace suite will be completed by the Twins home opener on April 11. Terrace Suite II is located down the right-field line near the sections 114 and 115. A little different option than the first suite, this one is available to fans on a membership-only basis. Fans must purchase a 20-game Terrace Suite season-ticket package.
Benefits of the membership suite options include access to exclusive season ticket holder online video chats, postseason ticket priority and online pregame scouting reports.
"The second suite has a country club-type atmosphere which is appealing to businesses if they want to entertain clients or reward their employees," Smith said. "You have a great view of the playing field, it's an exclusive-type area where they will be able to network with other businesses and the ability to provide an upscale meal and bar during the game. It's really a great option for many companies in terms of its value."
