Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!

By Wyatt Earp | November 25, 2010

Did you know there were no football games on the first Thanksgiving?

The event that Americans commonly call the “First Thanksgiving” was celebrated to give thanks to God for helping the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony survive their first brutal winter in New England. The first Thanksgiving feast lasted three days, providing enough food for 53 pilgrims and 90 Native Americans.

Thanks to God? They must have been bitter clingers. Here’s hoping you all have a terrific day.

    May your house receive the blessings of this day.

    I love how that one guy at upper left, is bitterly clinging to his blunderbuss.

    And if you’re having a little trouble getting the turkey cooked, you might try this.

    Howdy Wyatt! I don’t know about that first “Thanksgiving”. How can it be Thanksgiving Day without football, huh?!?
    In any event, a Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours Wyatt.
