We had tickets to the Twins game - home opening weekend tickets are always fun games because the crowd is electrifying! We set the alarm for like 8am, because Duluth is a good 2.5 hours from our house (we left the tickets at home, durr), then the ballpark is another 30ish minutes from the crib. We snoozed a bit and decided we didn't have to be at the field right at 1:10. I was a mess; still drunk most likely. Steve went and sat in the shower for probably 30 minutes.. then I told him he had to drive home because I couldn't even think about it.
We finally got on the road - after picking up some coffee (which I barely touched) and a tasty McDonald's breakfast sammy. After making several stops along the way we finally made it home, grabbed the tickets, and headed back out to Target Field! I think we walked in the gates round about 1:30-2:00. I really didn't want to be around people... being wicked hungover, loud crowds of people are not appealing to me. First things first... Walk-a-Taco. This is a new food item at the ballpark; it's a taco you can eat while walking... cone shaped shell with all the taco fixings mixed together inside of it. Scroll down a bit on this page to see a picture. Looks good, right? Steve and I were really excited to try these; we ordered one chicken and one beef:
For me, it left a lot to be desired. I liked the chicken better than the beef, because you could taste cilantro in it (and I LOVE me some cilantro)... but they mix in some sort of sauce with it and I don't really do taco sauces on my tacos, and I felt like that either ruined it for me or took away the rest of the flavor or something. Maybe I was just hungover and unable to taste.. who knows. Great picture though, right?!
Twins lost, which, for how I was feeling, was fitting. A few other pictures from the day:
cute, huh?

Bleh the Twins are making me sad lately. But I feel like they're always slow to start so hopefully it'll get better. I just bought some cute Twins earrings at the MOA and I can't wait to wear them when I have to work during a game.
Sounds like a fun day! I'm not a huge fan of tacos, but those look pretty good!
I still haven't been to a twins game.. Bad Minnesotan!
Being hungover is the WORST (which is partially why I never drink that much). You are a trooper... I wouldn't have gone to the game feeling like that. No way Jose!
Yuck on the hangover! I did that ONE time and learned all I needed about drinking. ;) Glad you all made it back safely and got to go to a game!!! We went to a Cardinals game last week and were so pumped. Sadly, our team is starting out slow as well... so I feel your pain there. Love the pics of you; you are, as always, B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L! (If I looked that good hungover, I would drink more)
if more arenas had those taco things i might start watching pro sports
I like that taco idea! Are those at Senor Smokes? I've never seen them there before. UGH, having a hangover and racing to get to the game sounds terrible...only to see a loss. I was there too and I actually forgot that you were going. Maybe we'll hook up there one of these times!
