Twins Clear Out Old Metrodome Merchandise

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) ― The Minnesota Twins are throwing open the doors to their closets and storerooms, allowing thousands of fans to rummage through a collection.
  
It was like a large garage sale Saturday at the Metrodome. Items for sale included cardboard cutouts and leftover bobblehead dolls -- final reminders of the stadium that closed at the end of this season.
  
Buffalo resident Ron Miller showed up at 4:30 a.m. and managed to get what he came for: A 30-foot banner noting the late Kirby Puckett's induction into the baseball Hall of Fame in 2000.
  
He says he's been collecting Puckett items for 15 years, so at $100 it was "a no-brainer."
  
Bobblehead sets of the 1965 American League champs sold for $400. Major-league baseball media guides went for $1.
