Minnesota Twins Bobblehead Fans Sleep in Line like Star Wars Fans!

Some Minnesota Twins fans slept outside the Metrodome last FRiday night to make sure they'd get the first bobblehead doll of the season...
"They set up tents just like they were in a campground. Some slept right on the cement in sleeping bags.

The Twins handed out Jacque Jones bobbleheads to the first 10,000 fans. But, you may be surprised to hear that it's not really all about the bobblehead for some of these campers.

“It’s just about the other fans that are out here and the conversation with them about the Twins and the game and Twins history,” Twins fan Erik Solis said. “So, it’s mostly about the camaraderie with the people out here.”

Still, the bobbleheads can be worth some money for collectors. Just hours after the game started, Jacque Jones’ doll was selling between $20 and $30 on eBay.com.

During each giveaway, the Twins will distribute at least 100 bobbleheads in between innings for late-arriving fans.""
