the local sports scene
The Twin Cities carry teams in all four major leagues plus one of the best-supported college programmes in the country, and hockey is the sport the state is actually built on.
The local sports scene
The scene
Minnesota is the self-styled State of Hockey, and the Wild play to a full building at the Xcel Energy Center in St Paul. The Twins are at Target Field, one of the better modern ballparks. The Vikings have four Super Bowl appearances and no wins, which is its own kind of shared history. The Lynx are among the most successful franchises in the WNBA.
Rivalries that matter
Vikings–Packers is the oldest and most personal rivalry in the NFC North. In college hockey, Minnesota against Wisconsin is a border war.
Where to watch
The North Loop before Twins and Timberwolves games; Grand Avenue in St Paul on Wild nights.
