My mom was cooking a turkey and she got distracted by the phone. When she remembered the turkey in the oven, it was a bit overcooked. But we still ate it and joked about how it was 'extra crispy' and that it was a new 'cooking style'. We had a lot of fun with that tough turkey.
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.

They made a special meal for him and Tom seemed to enjoy all the attention.

Once, my family was having a turkey dinner. My little cousin thought the turkey's leg was a drumstick from a real drum and started banging it on the table, making everyone laugh.

A really funny incident was when someone was basting the turkey and the baster slipped out of their hand and the juice splashed all over their face. They were covered in turkey juice and we couldn't stop laughing. It took them a while to clean up and get back to cooking the turkey.

Once, a caller on the Butterball Turkey Hotline asked if they could stuff the turkey with a whole pumpkin instead of the traditional stuffing. It was so absurd and funny. The hotline operator patiently explained that it was not a good idea as it would not cook evenly and could cause a mess in the oven.
Joke: What key has legs and can't open doors? A turkey! Story: In a barnyard, all the animals were having a party. The turkey was the DJ. He started dancing and making funny gobbling sounds instead of playing music. All the animals joined in and it turned into a hilarious dance party.
