Fibonacci Blue/FlickrRichard Tamboway, an usher at Target Field, tells fans that "this makes (him) feel awful" and "sorry to do this to you, but don't forget to vote for your favorite Twins players" when he is given the task of handing out All-Star ballots during the team's home games.

"I feel so guilty that I'm asking you this, since you probably paid more than face value for your ticket, but make sure to cast All-Star votes for your Minnesota Twins," said Tamboway, looking obviously embarrassed, to those seated in sections 310 and 311 as ballots were being dispersed. "No, really, I am serious. You probably don't recognize some of the names, since so many guys on the roster have been called up from AAA, but do the best you can. Again, I am sorry to bother you, but we're required to do this at every home game."

Tamboway does take some consolation in knowing that fans in other ballparks probably aren't dumb enough to vote for anyone on the Minnesota Twins, unless they do it as some kind of joke.
