Gluttony has company: 6 more all-you-can-eat dates

hotdogs.jpgWhat started as perhaps an innocent little lark has turned into a full-scale feeding frenzy. Yes, your Minnesota Twins have added six more “all you can eat” games to the schedule. The first one is on June 30, which happens to be our one-year wedding anniversary. Are you thinking what we’re thinking? Please enjoy the full schedule after the jump (and please note that multiple hot dogs and copious amounts of nachos do not go well with Twins relief pitching. Ugh).

June 30, July 1 vs. Detroit

July 28, 29 vs. White Sox

Aug. 18, 19 vs. Oakland

As always, remember the rules (via the Twins’ web site):

* Beer will NOT be included in the “All You Can Eat” package but will be sold next to the All You Can Eat concession stand along with ice cream and candy.
* No AYCE items will be available in packaging that can be ‘taken away’ outside the building, i.e. sodas will be supplied via soda fountains vs. bottles.
* No more than two items may be selected during each visit to the specified concession stand.
* Items available until 9:30 p.m.
* Concession privileges are restricted to the ticket/wrist band holder only. The Minnesota Twins would reserve the right to limit concession distributions to anyone distributing items to non-wristband holders.

Get ready to get fat.

“Get ready to get fat.”

Where were you before I started college?

You better reserve your seats now, because you know this guy will…

I’m going to predict a Quentin HR here off Bass.

They say gluttony loves company,
These pants fit me uncomfortably
Don’t need no contest weighing me down
For messing ’round
Won’t be pretty

Never mind. Dumb game. I’m embarrassed. Forget I asked.

(It’s Method Man’s “Break Ups 2 Make Ups,” by the way.)

I once saw a picture of my ex-girlfriend just like the one above.

Clarence beat me to it. Dammit.

Clarence

I was the one that took the picture.

Stu

You saw a picture of Clarence’s ex too? Was she hot?

jama says:

Wow

Clarence’s ex must really get around. When did Clarence date Paris Hilton?

Joker says:

Clarence

Rest assured, she was smart enough to cover her teeth with her lips.

There’s a reason they’re called Franks and not Clarences.

Now that I think about it, Randy Jackson was also in the background of the picture with my ex-girlfriend.

Doesn’t it look like the “eater” is missing their right hand?

I just want to go on record once again as anti-”Read the rest of this entry >>”.

Jon: I’m not a huge fan, either, but the folks upstairs — actually, they work on the same floor — would like us to start doing that with longer posts. I did it a little excessively today (TWSS), but expect it on 1-2 posts a day. You’ll get used to it. Or you won’t.

Funny, I thought it was Martin Lawrence
