Twins Offseason Madlib - Part 1

PrintI am quickly becoming bored of this offseason - no Twins games means a less fun blog. So I thought I’d see what I could come up with to keep things interesting around here. I made a Twins-themed mad lib for all of you to fill out (if you don’t know what mad libs are, look here). For a hint, the title is "Thanksgiving at Gardy’s."
Here’s how it works. We’ll go down the list of words for people to fill out. Fill in one word as a reply to this thread. Then someone else will fill in the next word on the list. I don’t want to limit how many words one person fills out - just be sure to give someone else a turn after each word you do. None of the answers have to be baseball-related.
Have fun, and let me know if you have any questions or if I’m not being clear.

Example
If there was a “0. Noun” to start the list, I would reply:
0 – Noun – Loon
Then I would let someone else answer number 1, but I could answer again after that.

I'm not going to do #8...but if I did, it would totally be "sideburnly".

10. would have been a great opportunity for "sideburns"
however since that was sort of taken by #8, lets go with:
