Twinsfest 2018 – Day 3

Today is always a bittersweet day.  The final day of Twinsfest is exciting because it is Twinsfest but you know it is the last day.  Both kids headed down with me today.  Caden hung out with his friends for most of the day and Cami hung out with me for almost the entire day except when she went through a few lines for herself.  I used today to finish off some players and to talk with a few friends.  We arrived at Target Field around 7:30 this morning for the 9am opening.  We went to the Brian Dozier line right away and I was able to knock off a couple Dozier autographs I needed.  Then Caden took off with his friends while Cami and I walked to other lines.  The next stop for us was Byron Buxton in the Twins Wives line.  We each got a card signed.  Cami went off to another couple lines while I got in line for Joe Mauer at the Twins Wives line.  I had to wait a couple hours for that line to start but Cami was able to get through a pair of lines and got me a few items.  When she arrived back the first words out of her mouth were “Well that was embarrassing!”  I asked her what she meant.  When she gave Aaron Slegers his debut ticket and asked him to inscribe the ticket ML Debut dated August 16, 2017 he said his debut was on August 17, 2017 and did not inscribe it.  I told Cami that we were both right.  His debut WAS on the 17th but it was the make up from the night before that was rained out so the correct ticket was the 16th.  Oh well.  It is signed.  He probably thought she was crazy.  We got through the Mauer line at the Twins Wives line and headed to the service level where we each went through a couple different lines.  I headed to the Gonsalves/Mejia/Berrios line and Cami went to the Enns/Chargois/Rooker line.  Once I finished the line I was in I headed to the Enns/Chargois/Rooker line and ended up running into Caden who was in that line too.  After that I went and spent a fun time chatting with my friend Tony S and his son Spencer.  Caden and Cami ran around to a couple more lines and we called it a day.  The final day’s totals for me are (including items Caden and Cami got for me but not including things they got for themselves):
