Tom Turkey is in Trouble. He WAS lucky enough to receive his annual Thanksgiving pardon from the President, and to keep it safe. BUT, he needs your help to retrieve his Pardon out of the box. If he doesn't show up to the National Turkey Office in 45 minutes with his Presidential Pardon, he will NOT be pardoned, and well we don't even want to think what that will mean. Please help Tom Open the Box and Enjoy Thanksgiving! Good thing Tom was smart to go for his Pardon on Wednesday, November 16th between 3 - 5 pm. Please help TOM!
