A family always has a tradition of saying what they are thankful for during Thanksgiving. One year, the youngest member said he was thankful for the Wi - Fi so he could play his video games. It was so unexpected compared to the usual heartfelt statements that everyone found it really funny.
In a big family Thanksgiving gathering, the kids decided to put on a play about the first Thanksgiving. But they got all the facts wrong and made up their own version where the pilgrims were superheroes and the Native Americans were wizards. It was a complete mess but the adults loved it and it became the most talked - about part of that Thanksgiving. There were so many giggles and it was a really unique and funny way to celebrate the holiday.
One funny story is about the time my aunt tried to make a pumpkin pie from scratch. She accidentally added salt instead of sugar. When we took a bite, it was the saltiest thing ever! We all had a good laugh and ended up ordering a proper pie from the bakery.
A woman was making her famous pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving. She accidentally used salt instead of sugar. When the family took a bite, they all made the funniest faces. She was so embarrassed but then they all started laughing. Another story is about a family who set up the Thanksgiving table outside in the garden. But then a flock of birds came and started eating all the food on the table. They had to run around chasing the birds away while trying not to laugh too hard.
A common one is when someone tries to deep - fry a turkey for the first time. They might not know how to properly handle the hot oil. I've heard of cases where the oil overflows or even catches on fire. It can be quite a scary yet funny situation, especially when everyone is running around trying to put out the small fire and save the turkey.
Here's one. A turkey says to another turkey on Thanksgiving, 'I'm a little worried.' The other asks, 'Why?' The first one says, 'Well, all these people keep talking about stuffing!'
One funny story could be about a church's Thanksgiving potluck. There was a new member who decided to bring a 'turkey' made entirely out of vegetables for the vegetarians in the congregation. When it was time to serve, everyone was so curious about this unique 'turkey'. Some kids thought it was a real, magic turkey that turned into veggies. It brought a lot of laughter and also started a great conversation about being inclusive during the holiday.
There was a family where the kids decided to put on a 'Turkey Day' play for the adults. They got all the costumes wrong and told a completely jumbled-up version of the first Thanksgiving. The mispronunciations and goofy acting made it a very funny Thanksgiving memory.
There was a family that always had a Thanksgiving football game. One year, the grandpa, who was quite old, decided he was going to be the quarterback. He put on his old football helmet and ran onto the field. But instead of throwing the ball forward, he accidentally threw it backwards right into a big pile of leaves where his dog was sleeping. The dog jumped up and started chasing the ball, with leaves flying everywhere. It was a Thanksgiving full of laughter.
One funny Thanksgiving disaster story is when the turkey caught on fire in the oven. My aunt was so focused on chatting with the guests that she forgot to check on it. When she finally opened the oven, there was a big puff of smoke and the turkey was black as coal. We ended up ordering pizza for Thanksgiving dinner that year.
One funny Thanksgiving turkey story is about a family who had a pet turkey named Tom. Tom was always strutting around the yard and thought he was the king. On Thanksgiving day, the family decided to have a 'pretend' Thanksgiving dinner with Tom as the guest of honor instead of on the table. They made a special meal for him and Tom seemed to enjoy all the attention.
