A New York fan tries to start a rivalry with Minnesota — they’re too nice to agree

MINNEAPOLIS — This weekend, New York teams are facing a double hit of the most fearsome, unhinged fanbase known to man. We’re talking about Minnesotans — the same folks who brought us Betty Crocker, the Nordic Track, MyPillow and Zubaz.

Friday, the Yankees take on the Minnesota Twins in the first game of the ALDS. Then on Sunday, the Giants and the Vikings play at MetLife. Are you ready to rumble? Politely?

I, a lifelong Yanks and Giants fan, flew to Minnesota to let them know we’re about to eat their lunch.
