Skol Vikings!

It's a Vikings Sunday week! This week, the Minnesota Vikings schedule brings the Atlanta Falcons to town in a game that could determine the Vikings as the division champions. If they win, that is. It's a very big-deal game, so big deal that the time of the game has been changed from the original (and usual game time of) 12 noon to 3:15 in the afternoon. So if you're already purchased tickets, or if you have some to pick up, please keep that game time change in mind! It's going to be a super exciting day down in Minneapolis by the Metrodome, hopefully the Minnesota Vikings can keep the fans happy and our playoff hopes alive with a FABULOUS win!

If you're still looking for Minnesota Vikings tickets for Sunday's game, we still have some at awesome prices at Ticket King. Check out our website or give us a call at 651-298-8100.

Marrowthon

Recently, TicketKing St. Paul sponsored the t-shirts for the DeLaSalle High School Marrowthon - a 24 hour soccer and basketball marathon that raised money and awareness for bone marrow donations. It's a really awesome event, and they even sent me a t-shirt as a thank you for helping them with their cause, and it's pretty cool! I thought there would be more sponsors on the t-shirt, but there were just three, so it was pretty neat to see our name right smack dab on the front of the t-shirts!

Bitter Cold!

Wow, so I never expected to come back to Minnesota and experience the INTENSE COLD that is -10 degrees...with a -25 degree windchill. Gross. What happened to our mild winter with a hint of snow? I'm so confused. It's been FREEZING down here at Ticket King St. Paul so far this week. Between the cold and the snow last night, it was pretty quiet down here on West 7th Street, despite the fact that the annual Jingle Ball concert has happening at the Xcel Energy Center! Luckily for fans, there were some really great last minute deals to be had on Xcel Energy Center tickets last night, which was AWESOME for all the kids (can I call high schoolers kids? wow, I'm getting old) that wanted to go to the show at a more affordable price! Next show on the docket: Celine Dion Thursday night at the Target Center.

Disney on Ice

Are your kids super geared up? Well, they should be! Disney on Ice: Mickey and Minnie's Magical Journey, is coming to the Xcel Energy Center this weekend! All the kids that I know are totally excited for the shows, this is a holiday treat for anyone in the two to ten year-old age range. As always, Ticket King is your number one source for all Disney on Ice tickets, as well as ANY Xcel Energy tickets that you're looking for! Check out TicketKing's website or call us at 651-298-8100.

Ticket King St Paul has a lot of Friends (some with fur)

Cortney is on vacation so Ticket Kristy (that’s me!) is holding down the fort. I thought I would take a minute to update everyone on the personal happenings of Ticket King St Paul this week.

Yesterday was a busy day here at Ticket King on West 7th Street. We had a lot of customers stop in to pick up tickets. I thought with the snow storm things would be slow, but I was wrong. The St Paul streets were cleared of snow by 9am and traffic was moving swiftly and parking was a breeze. I also had several customers stop in looking for holiday gifts for the sports fan in their life. I sold some Gophers Hockey tickets and Gophers Basketball Tickets (not St Paul events, I know, but we sell tickets to everything).

This morning, I also had to dispose of a furry mouse “friend” of Cortney’s. When I took out some trash from the basement, I noticed the mouse trap behind the bag had a dead furry critter firmly stuck to it. It was yucky, but I put on a brave face and a large plastic bag over my entire arm and carried the mouse to the garbage out back. I know Cortney will be happy to hear about all of this when she gets back!

p.s. The Ticket King St Paul fax drives me crazy – the fan is so loud and I have had to remove several paper jams.

Monday, Monday

Wow. There is not a whole heckuva lot going on down here at Ticket King St. Paul this week. Except that we do still have some super awesome Xcel Energy Center tickets available for Disney on Ice, so if you're looking to take the kiddies, you should definitely give us a call. There are some super fun events going on with our Ticket King Minneapolis store, so I thought we'd give you a head's up:

Oasis will be playing at the Target Center on Wednesday of this week. They haven't been here in forever! Should be a great show!

Again, for the kiddies: the Cheetah Girls will be playing at the Target Center on Thursday. Check 'em out, this is their last tour before the ladies part ways.

Annnd Minnesota Timberwolves tickets are still available for their games on Tuesday and Friday of this week. There's no better time to go check out all the action from some of the best seats in the house!

Jingle Ball

Jingle Ball is quite possibly one of the most popular, trendy holiday concerts we have this year down here at Ticket King St. Paul. There are a TON of super hot young artists that will be performing, like T.I., Rihanna, Lady Gaga... Along with all of the radio personalities that Twin Citians have become so fond of over the years from KDWB. And Ticket King customers seem to be pretty excited about the show. We have some awesome Jingle Ball tickets available, but they are moving super fast. So if you want to go to the show, don't miss your chance, buy them soon!

Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Yep, it's that time of year already. The Trans-Siberian Orchestra will be here this weekend! I can't believe that it's already holiday show time. I've never seen the TSO in person, but have only heard super fabulous things about it. I guess they have an awesome light show to accompany the music - so cool! Xcel Energy Center tickets are still available for BOTH TSO concerts, but they're moving fast, so make sure you check them out soon if you're looking! I love the Christmas in Sarajevo piece, and have it in piano form. I'm going to try to turn it into a duet so that my cousin and I can play it together on Christmas Day. I'll let you know how that goes.

Other hot holiday shows this year:

White Christmas at the Ordway Center

A Christmas Carol at the Guthrie Theater

Lorie Line at the State Theater

Mannheim Steamroller at the Orpheum Theater

As always, tickets are available at the Ticket King website, or by phone at 651-298-8100.

There's a chill in the air

Why is it suddenly winter? It's seriously SO cold down here at Ticket King St. Paul today! I had to walk to pick up some tickets, and I thought my ears were going to freeze off! Sadly, my favorite place, the Starbucks on West Seventh Street, is here no more, so I can't even stop to get a steaming hot coffee with the chilly weather. Although I do have to say, a steaming hot cocoa is sounding reaaaaaaallly good right now. We'll be down here until about...oh...seven or so tonight, because the Minnesota Wild are taking on the Colorado Avalanche tonight at the Xcel Energy Center. And I just want to remind all of our Ticket King Customers out there that it's SUPER easy to pick up any Xcel Energy Center tickets on your way to the game, show, whatever, because we're less than a block from the entrance to the Xcel! All you need to do when you're placing an online order with TicketKing is click the "St. Paul store pickup" for your delivery option, and you're all set to go!

Stay Warm! And Go Wild!!!
