Rainout question


Hi everyone, this is my first post here. I'm a Cubs fan first and foremost but over the past several years I've really started to enjoy watching the Twins and try to keep up with them as much as I can.

With the opening of the new stadium last year my friends and I decided that it was time to catch a Twins game in Minneapolis. We dropped the ball last year but were able to get tickets this year.

The game we are supposed to go to is this Saturday, July 23rd. I've been trying to follow the weather of late (especially with this heat) and I've noticed that they are calling for possible storms on Saturday.

I have a couple of questions because of this:

1) How long (if it's raining) do you believe they will wait out before calling the game? I've never had to deal with rain at a Cubs game (or any game for that matter) so I'm a little curious as to whether or not they will postpone the game beforehand or if they will try as hard as they can to get it in.

2) If the game is postponed do the Twins offer a buy back program or something for tickets? This is probably wishful thinking, I know, but most of us are coming from eight hours away and can't really just come back on a whim.

 

Any other advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and go Twins (and Cubs, I guess...)
