Go Twins! Go lower Dow!

Certain seats at Monday Minnesota Twins games this year will be priced based on the Friday closing price of the Dow Jones Industrials, according to an Associated Press story.

The "Home Run Porch" seats in lower left field that normally sell for $21 will sell for a price tied to the close of the Dow on the preceding Friday.

If the Dow is in the 8,000s on Friday, the seats will cost $8 on Monday. If it's in the 7,000s, it's $7.

The deal excludes the April 6 opener and Memorial Day, and there's a limit of eight tickets per person.
