The last two sentences are the best.  Looks like the metrodome security cares about this only during football games and not during empty Twins games for those fans WAY up in the nosebleeds.

I run into that kid every once in a while at football functions. Still doesn't talk much, but boy was he a monster on the field.

Get a couple of Captain and Cokes in him...he will start to talk a bit more.

Get three Rum & Cokes in you guys and you may be ready to suit up and take the field.

It only took one up at SP, although that was out of a 48 oz non-clear plastic mug.

Tonight's topic-
What is your favorite Thanksgiving food. Turkey is not an acceptable answer.
I'll have to go with green bean casserole. Tough to top.
Also a big fan of pecan pie. It only comes out at Christmas and Turkey day so its like a delicacy.

TheOne-
  YOu are counted in the original, not in the 6-8 MORE group.
Lets see, we've got a washed up exQB, a 3 washed up OL covering Center, Guard, and Tackle, a too slow safety that had balls of steel returning punts, a slow, weak middle LB that led the league in dropped INT's, and a former student coach who has a D2 national championship ring. Might also have a former whipping boy from our suite as well.

I'm working on getting an exFB who has been down graded to a tropical storm since graduating college to come along as well.

HURRICANE!!

I'm very proud to say I gave him that nickname.

1.  Mashed potatoes.  Don't even need the gravy.  A little salt and pepper is all the seasoning I need.  I could live on mashed taters (can you tell I'm Irish?).
1A.  My grandma's cinnamon rolls.  She makes them in a circular pan and there are 6 rolls around the outside and one on the inside.  That middle cinnamon roll is like the freakin' holy grail.  All the carmelized sugar and cinnamon and good stuff somehow settles into the middle to make that center piece a little slice of heaven.  At one point people started just cutting the middle roll out before any of the other ones were gone, so us grandkids had to establish a set of ground rules for the cinnamon rolls.  Any new people that show up at family gatherings (girlfriends/boyfriends/homeless people) receive a tutorial on how to eat the rolls.

Stuffing/dressing/whateveryoucallit.  I don't know how it's made and I don't care.  I just "gobble" it up!

[doolittledog]

My parents have a stuffing recipe to kill for.  I could eat nothing but that stuff for days!!!

[Walston Hoover]

Awwwwwwwwwwwhhhhhh. Cranberry stuffing. 

[Walston Hoover]

My wife wants me to throw candy corn out there.
Have to admit I'm a fan.

[Mr. Ypsi]

My favorites (aside from stuffing and my special mashed potatoes) are both (mostly) vegetable side-dishes.  Succotash (basically corn and lima beans in 'custard' - the only way I like lima beans) and a spinach and dressing combo rolled into balls, rubbed in olive oil, then baked.  To appeal to the kids when they were little, we dubbed them "Popeye balls" (especially with the 'olive oyl' ), and they did, in fact, love 'em. 

Your challenge: come up with a "Popeye balls" joke we haven't already told each other!

[footballdaddy]

Oh, where do I begin? I've you've seen me, you know I like EVERYTHING!. I do like a real mincemeat pie-with actual meat in it, not the pale imitations offered today. And sausage stuffing. And green ben casserole, And scalloped corn. And butterhorn rolls. And mashed potatoes and gravy. And pumpkin pie. Excuse me, I need to go make a sandwich! 

[doolittledog]

I then like to get up early the next day and start eating all that stuff all over again!!!  Something tells me footballdaddy and I are a lot alike
