The Minnesota Twins today unveiled their season ticket prices for their first season at "Expect More Pay Less" Park. Based on season ticket plans, the lowest price is $20. The luxury level will run you about $50 with an extra fee of at least $1,000.

See the particulars and what the view will look like here.

The new prices are roughly even with the what it cost to go to a game at the Dome.

Tangent time: Wrigley Field and the owner of a building across the street have taken their spat to a new level.

I like the nickname "The Cart" for the new stadium.

Where is the pool?

Arizona's ballpark at least has a pool:

Yours for only $6,500 per game including a $750 food and beverage allowance. "The Riviera Pools Pavilion also includes a private bar area, plasma television and plush patio seating. Pool rental comes with 35 game tickets, five parking passes, and a D-backs beach towel and baseball cap for each guest."

Not quite $200 a person
