The Jeff Sauer Experience v7.0

The Minnesota Twins, my favorite sports team, opened their new stadium this year. I am fortunate enough to have season tickets to this beautiful venue.

These photos consist of three events:

• Target Field Open House in March
• First Twins Exhibition game vs. the Cardinals on April 2nd
• Second Twins Exhibition game on April 3rd

The stadium itself is beyond what I ever expected – it’s simply beautiful and is perfectly designed and executed on all fronts.  There isn’t a bad view in the entire stadium.  There are sections that are protected from the weather/elements and others that are completely exposed.  Some of the seats are heated!

Target Field is a great place to watch baseball.   Enjoy the view!

I worked at the Greatest University in the World at the Web and Media services department, which allowed me to have visibility into both web production as well as the photographers from St. Thomas.

In fact, he is the person who immortalized Bill and myself on the St. Thomas email login page (click the link so you can check out my ridiculous blond hair dye – which was self inflicted). I saw his technique and skill, and I was always intrigued with what he was doing. However, I never really took the time to learn the craft.

So I went to a wedding last weekend for my sister in law Michelle’s sister Erin. It was a lot of fun! Easily the most entertaining part was Annika dancing up a storm on the dance floor. Here is a video of Annika dancing. Enjoy!
