“Now, everyone be seated and listen to me. We can still win this game. Just
keep defending and… you know… scoring. That’s the beauty of basketball. A
twenty-eight point lead is NOTHING!! Now… if you gentlemen will excuse me…”
He walks over to the restroom, goes in and shuts the door. The players hear a
loud thud and assume that he has passed out. No one says a word. They look at

Thanksgiving Day
A traditional meal usually consists of a stuffed oven roasted turkey as the main
dish. Other dishes like potatoes (in various forms) and cranberry sauce are also
considered traditional by most families. Watching a football game on TV has
also become part of the Thankgiving tradition for American families. Many also
like to watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade on TV, which is transmitted,
live from New York City.
The origins of this holiday in the United States go back to 1621 when the
Pilgrims and the native Indians sat together and enjoyed a feast to celebrate a
successful harvest. The Pilgrims were Europeans who came to the United States
seeking religious freedom. They founded a colony at Plymouth in present day
Massachusetts but would not have survived without the help of the native
Indians who lived there. They continued this traditional feast for many years
after that. When the United States won its independence from England in 1776,
each state celebrated Thanksgiving on a different day.
