It's getting that close! RD isn't normally an excitable sort, but starting next week, the Twins Caravan will start hitting the roads of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and the Dakotas -- and that's just about the best winter-time baseball fix a Batgirl reader could ask for. Come Monday, and running through Jan. 25th, touring Twins posses will be wandering the Upper Midwest, doing their damnedest to stay out of snowdrifts and chatting up folks in a manner that usually isn't possible come April.
That's where you all come in.
Regardless of what any of us Batgirl surrogates are writing about, you are always welcome to post your Winter Caravan story. Post 'em in the Comments section and tell us what's really going on, OK?
The schedule is posted at www.mntwins.com. If you have a choice of cities, RD recommends going to the one where the guys'll be at the end of the day. That's when the group is on less of a schedule, and you may even find them wandering the streets of your town. Or bowling. Or playing Texas Hold 'Em.
I mean, who wouldn't want to be Pat Neshek's tour guide in Brainerd next Tuesday night? And someone's gonna have to take Cuddyer and Redmond to the SPAM Museum in Austin. It may as well be you, right? And RD and Sweet-n-Sassy have scientific proof that sending a drink to Gardy's table, if he happens to be drinking at a table, can result in your next round being paid for by the manager.
Wear your Batgirl gear.
