Collectors Buying Up Pieces of Metrodome ‘Baggie’

Even though the Minnesota Twins haven't played a game there in three years, the Metrodome is still attracting the attention of some baseball fans eager to keep the memories of those indoor years alive.

A pair of collectors have purchased the Metrodome's old right-field wall after paying more than $3,000 for pieces of the 'Baggie'.

Two 16-foot-high, 190-foot-long sections of the fence sold during an online auction this week.  One went for $2,025 and the other for $1,000. 190 bids were received for the items.

The 23-foot high wall was used when the Minnesota Twins played at the Dome from 1982-2009.

With the Dome scheduled to be torn down next year to make room for a new Minnesota Vikings stadium, several other stadium items will be auctioned off.
