Turkey Drop

In Arkansas, the town of Yellville holds an annual Turkey Drop in which live turkeys are dropped out of a low-flying plane in hopes that they will slowly descend into the streets. Unfortunately, many of the birds are killed or injured each year. But the town of Yellville's plans to protect the birds by using frozen turkeys attached to parachutes one year turned into an even larger disaster as one destroyed the roof of a car and another smashed through a front porch.
