Twins Fever, I've Got It Too!

Thome and Punto enjoy the winningIf you have been in the Vicinity of the Central Division (baseball) lately, you know how hot the Minnesota Twin are. And I'm not talking about the attractive 'stache of Carl Pavano, the rear end of Joe Mauer, or the beckoning backhand of Danny Valencia. While I would LIKE to talk about that, I am speaking of the amazing winning season the Minnesota Twins have had.

Minnesota has Twins FEVER! While I would never classify myself as a fair-weather fan, I am a VERY hardcore Twins fanatic, I must say my temperature has definitely risen since the Twins clinched the division. I, myself, am planning on attending one of the post-season games. Target FieldPersonally, I am holding out for the World Series, but I do know this great place that has all the post-season tickets you will need.

Ticket King has the best post-season tickets available with an array of sections ready for purchase. Hop on the bandwagon and join your Minnesota Twins at Target Field as they take on their upcoming opponents on the way to the World Series. Take it from an expert, don't miss these amazing post-season match-ups.

Then, when you are at the game, you and I can discuss the various attributes our home-town boys have.

Ticket King in Real-Time

I know you love the updates pertaining to my fabulous job!

Today, before I was able to scan over the list Kristy gives me every week to keep me task oriented... actually... before I was in the building, Kortney asked me (very politely) if I knew how to get to our Minneapolis office. Minneapolis Rush Hour TrafficNope. Go figure, intern is basically a catch all phrase for anything from driving in particularly bad traffic as a result of construction to becoming trained in the art of extermination and mice removal. Hey, I'm not knocking the intern position, there is a heirarchy for a reason, ticket sales is serious stuff.

Anyway, I was on my way to Minneapolis when my low-gas light blinked on. Expletive!, I thought agonizingly, because I was hoping to have my less-than-a 1/16th of a tank last me the rest of the week. $20 dollars in the tank and I was on my way!

After successful retrieval, I saved the day again here at Ticket King... which brings me to the part where I am totally under-rated =). Now, I am here at my desk, not really my desk- I share it, checking off my weekly tasks. Lucky for you... I will be posting 3 blogs entries this week. I am too good to you.

Texas A&M Football

Ticket King, my beloved employer who has sheltered me from the I'm-too-poor-to-buy-anything-but-ramen life, is presenting my readers with the option of becoming the "12th Man". Be the 12th Man at Texas A&M What's that you say... Let me break it down.

The 12th Man is one of Texas A&M's long standing traditions. Ticket King has Texas A&M football tickets! Sure, its great to sit in front of the TV and watch the game, but why not purchase those A&M football tickets and visit College Station for a Texas football game with one of the most enjoyable football atmospheres in college sports today! Be the 12th Man.

True Story: Ticket King Intern

Driving to Work For all of you who are priviledged to live in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, you must be enjoying the rainy weather we are experiencing today. Most people, according to my Facebook newsfeed, dislike the rain. However, I find it soothing and the perfect weather for my favorite clothes! When I apply to law school, I plan on applying to the University of Washington in Seatle-- Wish me luck! Anyway...

When the alarm on my BlackBerry went off today at 7 am, I most definitely wanted to stay snuggled under my 1200 thread count sheets and not come in to my beloved Ticket King. However, I took a steamy shower, managed to put myself together with makeup and styled hair, and slipped on my comfy black slacks with a matching black top from Express and drove the ten minutes to work. Of course I stopped at Dunn Bros first.

Now that I'm here, I'm back in to that comforting rhythm that I manage to find every Tuesday, Thursday. I really love my job, especially now that I have control of my own blog! Naturally then, to my excitment when I got here today, My 'To Do' list was made up of writing core articles, negotiating ad space, commenting on various blogs, and creating jersey graphics. Let me break that down for you: our core articles are the main articles that Ticket King promotes. On these sites, we offer great tickets to various events (sports, theater, concerts) at inexpensive prices. Great stuff. Negotiating ad space, one of my least favorite things, is where I have to contact various blogs to see if they are interested in doing an advertising deal with me. Sounds easy, but very back-breaking =). Blogs... self-explanatory. As is jersey graphics.

Baylor Bears Football

After repeatedly striking out (wrong sport metaphor, I know)... or after repeatedly failing to score in the red zone (better?) I am asking you, my noble readers, for help. If you have a Baylor themed blog, you should definitely get in contact with me. Either leave a comment or email me (TicketKingCollege@yahoo.com). Don't let me down guys!
