Tough crowd. Clearly, Minnesota was a play on words. The title was technically correct, thus the joke, and the bit about being outside was clearly sarcasm.

Before I read that, I took it as the Gophers beat the Twins.

Have another drink my friend, and relax. Opening Day is but 5 days away. We're going to have some fun this year!
