Non-Sports Thanksgiving Memory

The most memorable Thanksgiving to me was the one where my uncle fried the turkey. I had never heard of anyone doing this so I was interested to see how it would come out. The process was very different then the normal way that you would cook a turkey. He took it in the back to the frier and fired it up. He then poured in a huge thing of vegetable oil and dumped the turkey in. At this point, it seemed as if everything was going as planned.

About thirty minutes into the cooking process, my uncle ran into a bit of a problem. The frier was leaking and overheating. He didn't think that this was really that big of a deal until the frier exploded! Luckily, my uncle had gone into the house for a minute to check on something in the kitchen. If not, it probably would have been a pretty sad Thanksgiving.
