SUMMER: Concerts, Games, and Parades

Although everyone is anticipating this good spring weather, I really just want summer to hurry up and knock at the door! Summer brings the best of the best…the best concerts (Rihanna, Katy Perry, Usher, T. Swift, and possibly Britney Spears!), the best sporting events (TWINS BASEBALL!), and the coolest festivals and parades! And we of course can’t forget the amazing weather. I’ve got a lot planned out this summer and I’m hoping to take advantage of every opportunity that screams out “FUN!!!” Well till next time!

Minnesota Wild Take On the Oilers

The Minnesota Wild are taking on the Edmonton Oilers tonight, March 31, at the Xcel Energy Center, and Ticket King still has some pretty affordable and convenient tickets for sale. The Wild haven’t been doing so well with their recent home games here in St. Paul, but we all hope for that to change tonight! To check out our site at Ticket King to see some prices and seats for the game! GO WILD!



Senior Year is a Killer

So as you all know it’s my final year at UST and I’ve been SWAMPED with homework, essays, exams, and projects, and now that the end of the year is coming up all of the FIVE (yes I said five) classes that I’m taking are basically taking over my life. It’s a little stressful, but I’m managing to deal. I just have to keep in mind that it’s only for like a month and a half and I’m DONE!…unless I decide to go to grad school…woof.



In other news, our men’s basketball team won the national championship for the Division I school, so UST has been in the news A LOT, and everyone’s proud of the teams success! GO TOMMIES!

Bored…Why Not Google Random Things?!



April Fool’s is coming up tomorrow, so I went to Google to search up some entertaining April Fool’s jokes, and I found some pretty interesting pranks and stories that had me rolling!!! For instance one prank involved betting one of your friends that they can’t balance a glass of beer on the back of each hand, on top of a table of course. When the beers are balance…simply walk away! They’re stuck with those beers! It sounds like it would be well worth the cost of two beers at the bar…BUT truth is, How many people do you know that would actually waste two beers on this?! Lol Thanks Google for the good laughs!

New Foods at the Target Field Stadium

As you know I'm a fan of a good baseball game, and enjoy attending a Twins game when I can, and the Target Field Stadium added something to make my experience even that more enjoyable....NEW FOODS!!! :) The Twins announced a new partnership with El Burrito Mercado of St. Paul, Minnesota and have added the Walk-A-Taco, which sounds a lot like its name...a taco that you can manage to eat while you walk!



Other items include the Giant Juicy Turkey Sandwich (of the Minnesota State Fair and Minneapolis food truck Minneapolis Turkey to Go), the Minneapple Pie (from Cottage Grill), and two more Kramarczuk's bratwurst offerings, which include a smoked bratwurst with horseradish cream and a wild rice bratwurst with pickled red cabbage and beer mustard! A kosher hot dog cart featuring Hebrew National hot dogs will also be added! Bring on the new food and beer! LE HEIM!

BACK HOME!

Soooo Miami was a success! and It was definitely well deserved! We accomplished a lot while on our stay in the party city, including going to South Beach to soak up the sun, get some shopping done, ride on scooters, hit up some nightclubs, visit the Everglades, and MOST importantly...snap a picture with Bobby Brown while being chased by the paparazzi!

Haha! It was too much fun, but I definitely was looking to come back to Minnesota spring with new snowfall and winter coats! But hey...definitely happy to be back home! Back to blogging!

Robyn on Tour with Katy Perry: DON'T include HER out!

So the Katy Perry California Dreams Tour has been the latest big buzz in anticipated concerts coming up, and tickets have been selling pretty steady. BUT…although I enjoy Katy’s music and consider her a good entertainer…her opening acts, one of them being my favorite artists, isn’t getting that much attention. Robyn is one of the opening acts for the tour, and happens to be in my top favorite 5 artists, so therefore I’m definitely more excited to see her in concert (for the 3^rd time might I add), rather than to see Ms. Perry. She’s been around for 10 years plus in the music industry, and her new album is to DIE for…its that good!

Nevertheless, I feel like the concert is going to be amazing with the Xcel Energy Center as the venue and some pretty hit songs from all of the artists involved. Check out some of the tickets for the July 9^th tour in Minneapolis on our Ticket King site if you haven’t looked into or bought yours yet!

MIA in MIA

SOOO…Spring Break is coming up and I will be spending my break vacationing in Miami! Me and some friends are going to spend next week there, and I couldn’t be anymore excited to just have a break and getaway for a while. Kristy’s a little worried about how safe it is out there around this time, being that it is spring break for a lot of schools, meaning hundreds of wild (with absolutely no link to alcohol) students out and about, but I’m publicly announcing that I promise to be safe and responsible Kristy! J

I’m sure that I’ll have some pretty interesting stories about my adventures and I’ll be sure to take lots of pictures and share them with you guys when I’m back!!!

How Much Can I Handle?

Definitely one of those days at the office where my tasks are pretty repetitive and a little boring. I've been working on our Gopher Football tickets site for the past few days at the office, since training is coming up pretty soon. The site is pretty nice just because it has so much information on the team and its ALL up-to-date, which you don't always get from most sites. And guess who's the lucky guy that gets to update it all?!?! This guy...Not one of the funnest jobs to do, but someone has to do it. As long as I got a good cup of coffee nearby and some banging tunes, I'm good to go! ;)

But its actually funny going through the roster and recognizing people that I know from high school that I had no idea played for the Gopher team. Just makes me think of high school stories, and how long ago it seems...does this mean I'm getting OLD?!?!?!

The TWINS are on their way!

So I was watching TV the other night and saw one of the new commercials promoting the Twins and their upcoming season! Click here to check it out! Spring is a good sign for baseball and I’m excited to go to a few more games again this summer! The last game I went to was at the new Target Field…with some coworkers, and it was a pretty fun time. It was my first, but definitely not my last time being at the Target Field, but I LOVED being at an outdoor stadium. I mean going to see games at the Metrodome were still pretty fun, but being in the type of environment that the new Target Field has is so much more enjoyable. And plus Twins tickets aren’t too expensive, so its always a good way to just spend some time with family and friends….Summer can come any sooner!

Through Sickness and In Health

YUK! I’ve been sick for days now, and have been taking advantage of every medicine known to man to help cure it....pain relievers, cough supressants, nasal spray, cough drops! And you're probably questioning why I have Rolos in this picture? No point at all...I just like Rolos! lol Being sick is just NOT my thing, but I’m staying committed to my job and duties here at Ticket King. Intern of the Year???…Right here!!!

Let’s get LOUD!!!

I have plenty of favorite musicians and bands that I listen to, but they tend to change every once and a while. But one of my favorite artists right now is surprisingly Rihanna and surprise surprise!!!...she's coming to Minneapolis on June 16 at the Target Center for her LOUD tour. The concert will include number-one singles “Only Girl (in the World)” and “What’s My Name?” I think that this is definitely one of Rihanna’s best albums yet, and she seemed to have a good mixture of songs that struck a groove nerve, so the concert should definitely be amazing!!! And YES…I’ve already bought my tickets. J

Born Not to Stay....

In a partnership with Target! After the recent release of Lady Gaga's new single and video "Born This Way," Gaga has officially ended a partnership with the chain retailer after she confronted the company's policy on poltical donations, since Target has publically donated to anti-LGBT rights political candidates. The cancelled deal was for an exclusive special edition of her upcoming album. It's definitely a bold move from Gaga, but don't know how much that'll change things. So many points in this mutual decision that make a lot of sense for both Gaga and Target, but it's hard to pinpoint a right and wrong in this story. All I know is that I LOVE me some Gaga....and I LOVE me some Target...:)

A Relaxing Day at the Office

Although I've been working on tedious assignments at work today, I've been pretty entertained and relxed thanks to Adele!!! Cortney brought in and played her newest album "21" today at work and I'm liking it a lot. I didn't think it was possible, but I think I going from being an Adele fan to a Adele SUPERfan! And she's coming to Minneapolis on May 26 to First Avenue during her tour. And although everyone has been spreading the word about her concert being sold out, this information is not completely true. Ticket King still has plenty of tickets to her concert, so its definitely something to check out. If you consider yourself an Adele fan, or Adele SUPERfan (copyright...lol), then you should definitely try to check her out in concert.
