Baseball and all-you-can-eat seating

Yeah. Really. The Minnesota Twins are selling seats for 10 Tuesday games that are all-you-can-eat seats. Two sections, 232 and 233 are the ones where you can stuff your face for the entire game. Nice.

This is an effort to sell more tickets, obviously, as everyone is getting hit by this recession. But still... are we really that in need of food that we could sit and eat nonstop for an entire baseball game? A hotdog or two, fine. But just pigging out and eating as much as possible? 

On a related topic... CHECK THIS OUT to see 2 maps... one of how fat America was in 1991 and the other of how fat America was in the 2006-2008 timeframe. It's pretty nasty, with places like Alabama and Mississippi leading the way to huge numbers of obese adults! Great. 

Here are the 10 fattest states:

A new study from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Trust for America's health shows adult obesity continues to climb. Michigan is 1.1% more obese since last year's report, moving from 10th to ninth place.

1. ...Mississippi 32.5%

2. ...Alabama 31.2%

3. ...W. Virginia 31.1%

4. ...Tennessee 30.2%

5. ...S. Carolina 29.7%

6. ...Oklahoma 29.5% 

7. ...Kentucky 29.0%

8. ...Louisiana 28.9%

9. ...Michigan 28.8%

10. (TIE) ...Arkansas, Ohio 28.6%
