Have a hunting or fishing license? Get a special rate on Twins tickets

Kids and adults who have a 2013 Minnesota hunting or fishing license can buy discounted tickets online for three Minnesota Twins baseball games and receive a free regulation blaze orange Twins logo baseball cap as part of a special promotion with the Department of Natural Resources (DNR).

“Hunting, fishing and the Twins are all big parts of Minnesota’s culture,” said Jenifer Wical, DNR customer enhancement manager. “This is a great deal for those who love the outdoors and outdoors baseball.”

This promotion includes home games Aug. 3 against the Houston Astros, Aug. 18 against the Chicago White Sox and Sept. 7 against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Those who want to purchase discount tickets should go to www.mndnr.gov/twins and enter their transaction number, which is printed on the license. A limited number of tickets are available for each game and will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.

Minnesota 2013 fishing and hunting licenses can be purchased on a mobile device or online at www.mndnr.gov/BuyALicense.

Phil McMullen, Twins ticket sales executive, said this new partnership with the DNR made sense. “The DNR is able to provide an additional value to its first-time or long-time license buyers. And for us, it’s a way to express our appreciation for those who have contributed to fish and wildlife conservation through their license purchase.”
