"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly"
"Turkeys are hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement" Classic 🙂
Yet another use of the "Oh the humanity" line.
I remember that episode from that show. They should show it every year in November. Hilarious !
RIP Mr. Carlson.
Something just came out of the back of a helicopter. It's a dark object, perhaps a skydiver plummeting to the earth from only two thousand feet in the air... There's a third... No parachutes yet... Those can't be skydivers. I can't tell just yet what they are but... Oh my God! They're turkeys!
Les? Les? Les, are you there? Les isn't there. Thanks for that on-the-spot report, Les. For those of you who've just tuned in, the Pinedale Shopping Mall has just been bombed with live turkeys. Film at eleven.
That is truly one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time. And yes they can fly and pretty far too.
nice
too bad it didnt peck his dingy. that would have been great.
And we want to send woman into combat????????????????? Please not this idiotic ditz.
Cujo would be proud
To the woman TV Producer...you dou che b ag
Ouch
Wild turkey's are smart and this one obviously is used to being fed by the neighborhood. This gal reporter let's us know she has heard of this chasing unrelenting wild turkey used to getting food so she goes out to get a film clip to make her
debut and it worked....lots of viewers...too bad the whole clip was so lame. good try though.
There would be a lot of fresh wild turkey in the oven where I live if this was ocurring like it is in Michigan.
I hate to say it but, turkeys the smart one, then the girl, then the turkey poo, then george bush.,
Les nessman rules, i love that episode!
Remember, leftover turkey makes great stir fry.
Wild turkey almost killed me over the summer, riding my Hog to work on an early morning tuesday and as Im heading down a pretty straight piece of road doing about 65, a wild turkey flew up out of the ditch and snagged between be and the windsheild. God knows how I didnt lay the bike down, but ill tell you I got some scratches that are pretty good scars on my face now. Yes I killed that bird and ate the SOB.
