July 30, 201313 yr Here is the primary one.... And here is the secondary one.... I gotta say, as a Minnesotan and Twins fan, I love them. I'd never thought of the Target Field "tiara" as particularly distinctive, but it says "Target Field" to me, and I like the Minneapolis skyline in the background. And I love the Minnesota outline in the second. Both seem to be done with the distinctive graphical style the Twins have been using which reinforces it feeling like our game. Well done, I say.
July 30, 201313 yr The second one makes me think they are playing the game in Duluth. I would have personally preferred an homage to 1991, or at least a Juicy Lucy somewhere on the logo.
July 30, 201313 yr Downtown Minneapolis is giving Target Field the shocker Two in the Coomer, One in the Punto
July 30, 201313 yr Pretty so-so logo, but I'm just excited to have the festivities here. I was at the '85 All-Star Game as an 8 year old with my Grandpa and would love to take him along with my kids next year. He'll be 93.
July 30, 201313 yr [ATTACH=CONFIG]5031[/ATTACH] Duluth? Sorry, I had to.Meh, I have never lived one day in Minnesota, just knew Duluth was north
July 30, 201313 yr The second one makes me think they are playing the game in Duluth. I would have personally preferred an homage to 1991, or at least a Juicy Lucy somewhere on the logo.Actually, that's more like Park Rapids. What a coup for P.R.!
July 30, 201313 yr Actually, that's more like Park Rapids. What a coup for P.R.!Not gonna lie, looked at the map and that star appears to be straight west of Duluth and South of Lake of the Woods, which means the star is exactly where Park Rapids is. Very Well done.
July 30, 201313 yr That is a little bizarre. They could have put the star in the dip in the M and been a lot closer although still probably a little too far north but at least it would have been on the correct side of the state (and they could have moved "Game" down a little more and to the right to accomodate it).
July 30, 201313 yr When it was first announced that the Twins would get the game, I made a logo at my blog. It was based off of the Inaugural Season Target Field logo. But some of the same ideas are in the one the Twins released. North Dakota Twins Fan: A Minnesota Twins Blog: Target Field will host 2014 All-Star Game
July 30, 201313 yr [ATTACH=CONFIG]5031[/ATTACH] Duluth? Sorry, I had to. Thanks for correcting the location of Duluth:)
July 30, 201313 yr Actually, that's more like Park Rapids. What a coup for P.R.!But it's also close to Wadena, which is a more fun name to say when you want to get your Fargo accent on.http://www.bgsu.edu/images/cas/img49785.jpg Also, Park Rapidians are getting a little too big for their breeches lately, what with their fancy 4th of July parade, indoor plumbing, and laying claim to the birthplace of the mighty Mississippi. Making them the honorary location of the ASG logo star will only make their heads even bigger. Next thing you know they'll be boosting a logging truck some night after Foxy's closes and stealing Paul Bunyan from Bemidji. So how about if we let the fine folk in the sleepy village of Osage host the logo star? They're only 10 miles from Park Rapids, they're quite humble even as rural Minnesotans go, and the PR boost may be just the revenue enhancer the town needs to get both of its side streets paved.
July 30, 201313 yr Are we sure that's not a Jeep Cherokee with a kayak on the luggage rack driving down 94? Putting the star in the wrong place is pretty terrible. Americans are bad enough at geography on their own.

Although the big gray box in downtown is still prominent. No getting around that thing!
July 30, 201313 yr I like them, but this one makes it look like the game is held in Park Rapids instead of Minneapolis (position of the star). Either get rid of the star, or move the whole thing southeast (to align with MPLS) and pop the MLB logo on top or something [ATTACH=CONFIG]5029[/ATTACH] .
July 31, 201313 yr I like the second one better. It's the Minnesota Twins, not the Minneapolis Twins.
July 31, 201313 yr I think they're both just kinda meh, nice. I'm neither overwhelmed nor underwhelmed. Edited July 31, 201313 yr by ChiTownTwinsFan My grammar is atrocious this early in the morning
July 31, 201313 yr I think they're both just kinda meh, nice. I'm neither overwhelmed nor underwhelmed. exactly...just bland...
July 31, 201313 yr Here is the primary one.... [ATTACH=CONFIG]5028[/ATTACH] Is that a UFO in front of the MSP skyline?
July 31, 201313 yr I like the second one better. It's the Minnesota Twins, not the Minneapolis Twins. The All-Star game is in Minneapolis, not Minnesota Twins.
July 31, 201313 yr You can only buy the gear at the Twins shops this weekend. I guess that means I gotta go watch the Astro's.
July 31, 201313 yr The All-Star game is in Minneapolis, not Minnesota Twins. The Minnesota Twins are in Minneapolis too
August 1, 201313 yr The All-Star game is in Minneapolis, not Minnesota Twins.So, you like the first one better then?
