T'Wolves Fans Rush To Target Center For Kevin Garnett's Return

Kevin Garnett last night played his first home game back in a T'Wolves uniform, and the game against the Wizards "became such a hot ticket that the team checked with the fire marshal before releasing 500 standing-room tickets." The crush of fans "forced the team to open doors early." By 5:45pm, the line outside Target Center stretched past the gift shop and "through the skyway that crosses First Avenue." The T'Wolves honored their "weekly promotion for college students, setting aside 300 $5 seats." The box office opened to students at 10:00am CT, "igniting a mad dash" (Minneapolis STAR TRIBUNE, 2/26).
