MY Xcel Energy Center Experience

The game day experience at the Xcel Energy Center is as entertaining as there is in sports.  The Xcel Energy Center is home to the Minnesota Wild of the NHL.  The Xcel Energy Center Game Day Experience has one of the best game day experiences in the NHL.

When the Minnesota Wild play, the fans of Minnesota flock to the Xcel Energy Center.  The stadium buzzes when the team takes the ice.  Before the team takes the ice, a kid skates to center ice holding a Minnesota Wild flag and plants it in center ice.  Then the goal horn sounds and the team takes the ice.  The organ is played for every game at the Xcel Energy Center. I get chills when the lights dim and the Wild Theme song is played... "In the state, the state of hockeyyyy."

The atmosphere at the Xcel Energy Center is electric, there's no other way to explain it.  Everything with the arena is state of the art.  The team even introduced a new mascot, called "Nordy" a few seasons ago.  Nordy can be seen around the arena energizing the fanbase.  One time I even got a picture with him! Don't miss your chance at the Xcel Energy Center Game Day Experience and purchase your Minnesota Wild tickets today so you can have that great Xcel Energy Center experience as well!

Minnesota Wild Theme Song

Before every home game at the Xcel Energy Center, the Minnesota Wild Theme Song is sang throughout the building.  The lyrics are for the Minnesota Wild Theme Song are below:

We were raised

With the stick

And a pair of blades

On the ice we cut our teeth

We took our knocks

In the penalty box

Our mother was the referee

This sport was here

Before we came

It will be here when we're gone

The game's in our blood

And our blood's in the game

Lay us down under

A frozen pond

We will fight to the end

We will stand and defend

Our flag flying high and free

We were born the child

Of the strong and Wild

In the State, the State of Hockey

A big blue line runs around our state

A line that can't be crossed

The day they try to take this game

Is the day the gloves come off

We will fight to the end

We will stand and defend

Our flag flying high and free

We were born the child

Of the strong and Wild

In the State, the State of Hockey.

 Be sure to sing the Minnesota Wild Theme Song at every Minnesota Wild game!

Bob Seger Kid Rock Concert March 15th

St. Paul, you are not going to want to miss this concert. Bob Seger and Kid Rock are coming to town for this once in a life time chance to rock out at the Xcel Energy Center. The rockers have been friends since 2000. Kid Rock was on hand to induct Seger into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004, and he also made a guest appearance on his 2006 ‘Face the Promise' album. Seger returned the favor by playing piano on ‘Collide,' Kid Rock's duet with Sheryl Crow. They're both from Michigan and share an interest in classic cars, and Seger and his Silver Bullet Band often rehearse at Kid Rock's rehearsal space.

The friends have been talking about doing shows together for years, and it turned out they were able to make two dates of their respective spring tours coincide. Seger and the Silver Bullet Band will perform with Kid Rock and the Twisted Brown Trucker Band in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minn. on March 15.
