“We have archery competitions on big paper mache dummies with soda cans in them so when you hit the can it explodes.”

Patrick Conaway 

“My favorite Thanksgiving tradition is playing a game called “salad bowl” after dinner with my huge extended family. I’m one of 16 cousins who are pretty competitive so it’s very fun to play party games together.

The way the game works is you put in a bunch of celebrities/famous characters on strips of paper into the bowl and do timed rounds of charades in two teams. Lots of yelling and laughing immediately ensues.”
