funny thanksgiving disaster stories

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.

Our family had a Thanksgiving where we invited a lot of relatives. We had planned to seat everyone in the dining room, but we miscalculated the space. When everyone showed up, it was so crowded that some people had to sit on stools in the hallway just to be part of the dinner. And passing the food around was like a crazy obstacle course. It was a total disaster but made for some great memories.

Here's another. A little kid at Thanksgiving dinner was asked to say what he was thankful for. He said he was thankful for the mashed potatoes because they looked like clouds on his plate. Then he started making up a story about flying on the mashed potato clouds to the land of cranberries. It made everyone at the table laugh and started a whole round of silly Thanksgiving - themed stories.

There was a story in a small Christian community. For Thanksgiving, they were planning to have a big feast and share their blessings. A little boy, who was very excited, thought he could help by bringing his pet chicken to the church kitchen as a contribution. When he showed up with the chicken running around the kitchen, the ladies cooking were initially shocked but then couldn't stop laughing. This simple act of the boy's innocent misunderstanding added a lot of humor to their Thanksgiving preparations while still being in the spirit of sharing within the Christian community.

Another joke is: What's the key to a great Thanksgiving dinner? The turKEY. This is a pun as we often think of a key as something that unlocks or is important, and in this case, the 'turKEY' is made to seem like the most crucial part of the Thanksgiving dinner in a funny way.

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 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.
