Wild Home Opener falls on HUGE sports weekend

The MN Wild Home Opener is always one of the biggest games of the season, and subsequently one of the hardest to get good tickets to. This year will be no exception, in fact it may even be harder than usual considering the sports scheduling phenomenon that occurred. All 4 of the big Fall sports teams in Minnesota are playing big games at home starting the weekend preceding the Wild's Home Opener, my prediction is that several will make it a long weekend in the Twin Cities and buy tickets to multiple events and turn the first weekend in October into a mini-vacation.

The Sports madness kicks off with the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers football team taking on rivals the Wisconsin Badgers at the new TCF Bank Stadium on Saturday October 3rd, then the Twins play their last home game in the Metrodome (ever) on Sunday October 4th, then Monday the Vikings take on the Green Bay Packers and to round off the "weekend" the Wild play their home opener against the Ducks on Tuesday October 6th.

I know that there are still Wild Tickets out there for the home opener, but if my prediction is right and people decide to make the weekend a fall break the seats won't last, so I would Buy your home opener tickets soon!
