Paula MinellPaula Minell

Born the same year as the Dome, Paula grew up with World Series victories, Homer Hankies, & Magic Numbers. Her childhood baseball memories include pretending to be Kirby Puckett in centerfield at the Dome. Target Field is her favorite place (1st base side), and she is confident that Joe Mauer WILL hit a Target Field home run in her presence. She credits her former roommate for reigniting her obsession with the Minnesota Twins and teaching her that outdoor baseball ALWAYS beats an inflatable roof. Since she must occasionally function without baseball, Paula has learned to enjoy Jane Austen novels, cheap wine, and hosting epic events of mini proportions.
