Governor Pawlenty says he expects to sign the Twins and Gopher stadium bills sometime this week.
Appearing on WCCO-AM, Pawlenty said he might sign the Twins stadium bill at a Twins game later this week.
The governor says he probably will sign the Gopher stadium bill on the University of Minnesota campus, also this week.
Pawlenty says having a successful college football program brings a lot of energy and excitement to a university - not just in sports, but also for a school's reputation and visibility.
Plus, he says, "it'll just be a heck of a lot of fun."
