Minnesota Wild Tickets available for Home Opener

The Minnesota Wild open the 2009-2010 season at the Xcel Energy Center on Tuesday October 6th at 7:30. This should be a big game, because lots of fans are going to want to come out and see if Todd Richards is really going to be able to do everything he has promised he can do for the MN Wild.

I did some looking yesterday and there are still some great tickets left for the Home Opener, but as the weekend approaches and more and more sports fans come to town for the big football match-ups that are happening (Vikings-Packers and Gophers-Badgers) I think that the MN Wild tickets are going to go fast. Several sites, including Ticket King have some great seats left, including seats by the face-off circle of $50 and seats just 4 rows from the ice for only $95... these seats won't last for long though, so buy early or you will be catching the game from your couch!

Wild Home Opener falls on HUGE sports weekend

The MN Wild Home Opener is always one of the biggest games of the season, and subsequently one of the hardest to get good tickets to. This year will be no exception, in fact it may even be harder than usual considering the sports scheduling phenomenon that occurred. All 4 of the big Fall sports teams in Minnesota are playing big games at home starting the weekend preceding the Wild's Home Opener, my prediction is that several will make it a long weekend in the Twin Cities and buy tickets to multiple events and turn the first weekend in October into a mini-vacation.

The Sports madness kicks off with the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers football team taking on rivals the Wisconsin Badgers at the new TCF Bank Stadium on Saturday October 3rd, then the Twins play their last home game in the Metrodome (ever) on Sunday October 4th, then Monday the Vikings take on the Green Bay Packers and to round off the "weekend" the Wild play their home opener against the Ducks on Tuesday October 6th.

I know that there are still Wild Tickets out there for the home opener, but if my prediction is right and people decide to make the weekend a fall break the seats won't last, so I would Buy your home opener tickets soon!

Wild Win Home Opener

The Minnesota Wild won their home opener against the Boston Bruins 4-3. The score was only close thanks to the Wild looking sluggish in the fourth period. Minnesota wild tickets sold out quickly for that show and word on the street was that even scalpers didn’t have much to choose from come Saturday night.

I was impressed with what I saw on the ice and I think the Wild team looked strong and a lot of players stepped up. I think Gaborik could be on his way out – we may not need him. Time will tell.
