"The homecoming reception the American League Champion #MNTwins received from 50000 fans at the Metrodome on this night in 1987 is one of the coolest moments in professional sports history. Keep in mind this was before cell phones and social media so news of this impromptu gathering spread via word of mouth and over the radio. When the team landed back in Minnesota they heard there was something happening at the Dome but nobody on those team busses pulling up to the ballpark could have anticipated that the building was literally filled to capacity"
