Time for installment #2 of Weekend Jeopardy where we all get caught up on what the hell happened.
A: This inflatable item enabled CC's son, Adam, to have the most kickass party (with approx 40 kids in attendance, plus adults) in the Twin Cities since Prince adopted 3 cats and colored them all purple.
Q: What is a jump house or moonwalk? Correct
A: This woman was the driving force behind the party, came up with the concept and made sure that all the guests had plenty of high-quality beverages, cupcakes and ice cream treats (6 varieties) and is overall far too good of a wife for CC.
Q: Who is Rachel? Correct
A: This team was easily handled by the Brewers this weekend.
Q: Who are the Minnesota Twins? Correct. We also would have accepted the MN Wussies.
A: The overall attendance at Miller Park this year and average per game and also the projected overall attendance.
Q: What is 967,770 with an average of 27,650 and a total of 2.177 million? Correct.
A: This man will become the Bucks' #1 pick in the upcoming draft on Tuesday and help to lead the team to the playoffs this coming basketball season.
Q: Who is Andrew Bogut? Correct.
There you have it, another edition for the books. There is so much going on about the stadium here in MN and if one should be built for the Twins. This weekend there were over 110k people at Miller Park for the Brewers/Twins series and about 35-40% of them were Twins fans, I would say. If people are willing to drive that far to see their team in a beautiful outdoor stadium, that should tell the lawmakers enough as to how dedicated that fan base is, and that they would easily be around 2.3-2.5 million/yr in attendance should a new one be built for the Twinkies. So you see an incinerator, a blah skyline or a billboard of Daisy Fuentes in a bikini in the background, it doesn't matter (OK, that would matter to me). The people just want a good stadium where they can sit under the open sky and have a good time watching baseball.

We rented a huge jumper for The Boy's® 4th BD in 2004. It was April and the temperature was hovering near 40 with snow flakes on the air. But these kids were out there for hours anyway.
I recall getting pounded in the family jewels several times...I think they were all kids of Packer fans.
Good kids, parents taught them well.
I jumped around (as did Shane) and it was a blast. When I jumped, several kids got that extra boost up in the air. My son spent about 3.5 hrs in that thing. Gonna be tough to top this one.
I thought the same, how will I top this? So this year we rented amusement games and set up a little amusement area outside. Kids loved it. And the parents enjoyed being "Carnies". The same place you got your jumper from should also have games.
We just do a big party every other year for each kid. Next year, my daughter will have a big party. We may just do jump house part II, although I like your idea a lot.
Yep, I loved that jump house. And truth be told it was quite the workout. Very tiring bouncing kids higher and higher. Are you going to post any pictures, CC?
Also, I love what you said about the stadium. As a Twins fan my trip to Miller Park last year was probably the best time I have ever had at the ballpark. 40% were Twins fans this weekend? Amazing.
No more pictures of Daisy Fuentes. That was just evil (and beautiful!).
Maybe I'll put some pics up tonight after my softball game.
It was estimated that 15k or so at each game were Twins fans, that to me screams they love an outdoor stadium.
Nothing objectionable about Daisy is there? One of my all-time favorite models/spokeswomen, and yes, there will be more pictures on future columns.
