Why Is Minneapolis So Significant to Brooks?
In October of 1998, Brooks “recognized and celebrated the 5 millionth ticket buyer of his world tour in Minneapolis, marking a milestone in a tour that helped redefine what was possible for a country music artist,” his website says.
“I have no idea why they have taken me in the way they have, but it has been this way since the very beginning,” Brooks said in the statement.
“The Twin Cities then set an all-time record for Brooks when more than 200,000 people packed the Target Center for his comeback tour after retirement,” the website says.
“I remember seeing the great folks from the Target Center in Chicago,” Brooks said on his website. “The Windy City was the opening city on the comeback tour, and Chicago had just broken the 96-98 attendance record previously held by the Target Center. When I asked them what they were doing in Chicago, they simply said, ‘We came to get the record back.'”
