Bring Your Cat to Work Friday Part Two

Prairie Home Companion Fitzgerald Theater Tickets

A Prairie Home Companion originally started out as a morning show running from 6-9am on Minnesota Public Radio, but the earliest radio program to have this name barely resembles what is currently heard on the Saturday evening show.  Hosted and created by Garrison Keillor, this live radio variety show runs from 5-7pm and is known for it's musical guests (especially folk & traditional musicians), radio drama and Garrison's storytelling segment titled "News from Lake Wobegon."   The show has been on the air since 1974 and was named after the Prairie Home Cemetary in Moorhead, Minnesota.  The radio show inspired a 2006 film of the same name that featured Meryl Streep, Lindsay Lohan, Tommy Lee Jones, Kevin Kline, Woody Harrelson & many more.  Now you too can see a live broadcast of A Prairie Home Companion at the Fitzgerald Theater in St. Paul!  Garrison will be doing several live shows taking place on Saturday evenings from January 8th through February 5th.  Check out Ticket King's supply of Prairie Home Companion tickets!  We have a wide variety of EXCELLENT seat locations to choose from - always at a great deal!  Get yours today!

Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers Tickets Are Hot!

Hey Vikings & Packers fans, listen up!  After the Minnesota Vikings dramatic overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals yesterday, we can safely say the Vikings are still in it to win it.  The win moves them to 3-5 and keeps them in the running for the playoffs.  This scenario seems all too familiar to us in Minnesota, doesn't it?  Maybe this season will be different. Maybe we could actually make it to the Super Bowl.  Our defense definitely played a lot better yesterday, recording six sacks against the Cardinals, so maybe this could mean things are turning around.  The Vikes will play two away games before returning home to face their favorite rivals, the Green Bay Packers, on Sunday, November 21st at noon.  If you would like to attend the most popular home game of the season, get your Vikings vs. Packers tickets while our selection is still so great.  We currently have upper level seats starting at just $155 each or lowers at $260.  We also carry the VIP parking passes that allow you to park ON the Metrodome property, like a rockstar, with all the players and coaches!!  Get yours today!
