Best Thanksgiving Traditions on Twitter

by Cory H. on November 25, 2008

If you’ve ever thought that you need a quick idea for a way to get family togetherness on Thanksgiving, Twitter is an awesome focus group. I asked my friends on Twitter to shout out their favorite Thanksgiving traditions. Special thanks to chrisbrogan from Dad-O-Matic for broadcasting this Tweet. Check it out.

i_am_lisa: Best Thanksgiving tradition? Watching the Dallas Cowboys play football! (hard to do normally up here in MN Vikings country)
rockcandytv: Going to NYC to watch the balloons blown up for the Macy’s Day Parade.
BLG: – Our tradition is to put the turkey in the oven and go to the gym for a workout, a swim and a sauna with any willing guest.
jennypratt: Fav T-giving tradition – going around the table & having everyone (of all ages) say what they are thankful for before eating
iberyoung: – we like to think of mashed potatoes as a blank canvas, and the kids get to decide what goes in. They love it!

I am going to my parents house tonight because my mom has to work at the airport. Our traditional thing is to start opening wine pretty early and then we all just pound it until its time to eat.

Thanks for including me, Cory. When you combine a huge family, snow, wickets and mallets, beer, and the stab-your-buddy-in-the-back mercenary alliances of Pirates of the Caribbean...it's hard to go wrong.
