The Twins at the Met ReviewI ordered this book for my husband, and myself. We both loved it! The pictures are terrific! There are many views of the field, and the pictures of the players are really good too. The memories that this book brought back to us were really special; everything was just how we remembered it.
The articles and quips are enjoyable as well. The author, Bob Showers, did an excellent job.
He also wrote another book,"Minnesota North Stars: History and Memories with Lou Nanne."
Numerous times I have looked at, or bought a book, with the anticipation of seeing pictures that will bring back memories. Numerous times I have been disappointed because of the lack of pictures, or the pictures themselves aren't views that one would really recognize. Not only does this book have a lot of pictures, it includes pictures that are unique. This book would be enjoyed by anyone who attended a Twins game at the Met.
I was at the game when there was the bomb scare. We had to leave the stadium, stay in the parking lot, and I remember my dad telling me that if I saw an explosion in the sky that I was to duck under the dashboard!I'd sure like to know why we couldn't just leave immediately.:)I found it interesting that this event was covered in the book, and there were pictures. I found it even more interesting that there were a lot of people who didn't even leave the stadium! Who knew?! I guess there are some things that always remain a mystery.:)
Enjoy the book!

The Twins at the Met OverviewThe Twins at the Met captures the rich and colorful history of Minnesota Twins baseball at Metropolitan Stadium. Long before Target Field, and long before the Dome, there was the Met Metropolitan Stadium in Bloomington, the initial home ballpark for the Minnesota Twins. It was Minnesota's first taste of Major League Baseball in the great outdoors, and for 21 seasons was complete with Hall of Fame performances, vivid characters and unpredictable weather. Through new interviews with legendary Twins players and staff, the book is packed with fond recollections and candid comments on the Met Stadium era. From Bob Allison to tailgaters, Bombo Rivera to the bomb scare and Rich Reese to the Beatles, the history is told by those who were there:

Bob Showers passionately gathered vintage photos of Metropolitan Stadium and Twins baseball. The book's pages are filled with hundreds of nostalgic images that are sure to evoke the memories.
