Fun Times at Valleyfair

FOX Sports North took the show on the road and set up Qwest Twins Live at Valleyfair. It was a fun day of baseball, games and rollercoasters. The special pre and postgame shows were designed to highlight all of the activities, performances and rides that provide family fun at Valleyfair. Hundreds of fans came to the park to celebrate with the FOX Sports North crew and over 500 fans commented on their favorite Valleyfair rollercoaster on the FOX Sports North Facebook page for a chance to win a private cabana at Valleyfair’s Soak City.
