With all the traffic due for the Twin Cities’ other big sports stadium today, one might forget about the open air sister down the street…empty, quiet, awaiting baseball.

A 59 year old “snow artist” did not overlook what kind of a canvas an untouched and snowy Target Field would provide for him this past week.  Using just his footprints. 

According to the StarTribune, Simon Beck has a lifetime goal of making 1,000 of these pieces of winter art by the time he is 80.  On average, it takes him 11 hours to do a piece…and travels about 25 miles in each one.  The video below show his first ever stadium-sized installation.  — [eric]
