The Minnesota Twins have stopped selling 2010 season tickets in most areas of their new ballpark and started a waiting list for next year.

The Twins announced Tuesday they’ve sold the equivalent of more than 24,000 season tickets, which include 40-game and 20-game packages. Target Field’s capacity is just under 40,000 seats. Season tickets are still available in special club areas.

Single-game tickets have gone fast, too, with a total of 2.5 million tickets already sold two weeks before the home opener.

Fans can make a $100 per-seat, nonrefundable deposit to join the “On Deck Circle” and receive priority to purchase 2011 season tickets. The deposit will be applied toward the season-ticket cost.
