Drew Butera's inside tour of TwinsFest (with video)

Sweet Drew takes us behind the scenes at TwinsFest. Very funny video as he surprises fans, crashes signings and Q&As, and tries to figure out who's touching his hair.

Adorable!

So fun to see them interacting together!

Drew Butera still shouldn’t be on a major league roster, but maybe he’s got a career in broadcasting…

Why doesn't he burn anything?

Damned FCC and their regulations

they could learn a thing or two from twinsfest. Diversity is important. Show some burnings.

MPR, Lefsa, Grumpier Old Men and Joe Mauer! Top that.

Oh, the irony of the "diversity" crowd

One black couple in a sea of white. Way to be diverse, Minnesota!

And yeah, I agree with the above. Butera can be the next Ron Coomer.

Well I'd fully welcome a 253 point jump in OPS.

Butera’s career OPS. :481
Coomer’s: .734

I always like to picture Drew as a 12 year old kid who wished on a magical snowflake in some straight-to-DVD Disney movie and an angel granted him the wish to play for the team his dad did and now he’s learning the true meaning of family.

My thought process watching the vid:

Drew: “I’m gonna hit .330 this year. I’m calling it.”
My Brain: “So, they’re shipping you back to A-ball, eh?”

That's not how Disney movies end.

That was just me being snarky.

Because Butera isn’t a major leaguer. -Or at least he shouldn’t be.
