Turkey Bowl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Turkey Bowl is a term used to refer to a number of non-professional American football games that take place on or around Thanksgiving Day. While the games themselves are not generally nationally known, Turkey Bowls hold importance for those who participate and it is not uncommon for rivalries to last for decades. [1]
