For those out of town, the Kirby memorial will be broadcast live on twinsbaseball.com. KFAN will be playing it on the radio and they have a live stream on their site http://www.kfan.com . Also, apparently WCCOradio.com will have the audio available on their site as well. In the cities, the local UPN channel and KSTC will be carrying it.

From MLB.com:

More details of the public tribute to Kirby Puckett that will be held at the Metrodome at 7 p.m. CT on Sunday night have been released.

Longtime Twins radio broadcaster John Gordon will emcee the event, which will include testimonials from Puckett's friends and family including Kent Hrbek, Torii Hunter, Tom Kelly, Harmon Killebrew, Andy MacPhail, Al Newman, Cal Ripken Jr. and Dave Winfield.

Here are the addresses of those charities:
