Celebrating big and important celebrations is what brings all families together. It is one of those times when despite all of the difficulties such as time, distance, differences, and old family drama, everyone shows up to have some quality time with their loved ones. However, even though this might be the goal of the evening, sometimes things run a different course. Very often there is that one person who can turn things upside down and make the night one to remember.
Having this in mind, Reddit user @IAmA_Wolf asked people online to remember and share “the trashiest thing somebody has done at your family Thanksgiving.” This gave a green light to a lot of people who decided to reveal who from their family did the craziest thing during Thanksgiving dinner, and how.
Thousands of people decided to reveal what embarrassing, annoying, or crazy funny things their relatives or just guests did during the gathering. From collecting leftover food the minute everyone sat down to eat to fistfighting or finding out their significant other was cheating on them, people had some juicy stories to tell.

Almost trash, but not. I’m at a huge Thanksgiving dinner at my son-in-law’s brother’s place. His redneck dad had been drinking and deep frying turkeys all morning. Mostly drinking. He comes in to learn that his daughter’s spouse had a bit of change and went from “Bill” to “Jane.” Nice time and place to come out, right? He goes right up to Bill/Jane and says, “Well, we all love you no matter what.” Then we all had a dinner that could not be beat.

Every year my family “subconsciously” gives all the left overs to whichever cousin isn’t doing the best in life.
I’ve gotten the leftovers for the last 6 years.

I was at my wife’s uncles house for thanksgiving , and his wife decided right after dinner to play their wedding video ( because it was also their anniversary weekend). She looks for a half hour to find the video tape, finds it and gathers the whole dinner party (25 ish people) to the back room area, plays the video, and right as she’s walking down the aisle, mid way down the aisle it goes fuzzy….. and cuts to…… Dale Earnhardt’s funeral. Uncle joe used that tape to record Dale Earnhardt’s funeral. Granted it was in small town Michigan wherenthe nascar track is, but still….Everyone froze in complete shock and I started laughing and felt like i was in a sitcom but it was real life.

My uncle brought pizza to thanksgiving because he didn’t like my grandmas cooking. She had spent all day cooking our thanksgiving meal and he brought pizza! He, my aunt, and my cousins ate the pizza like it was nothing. My grandma went into the other room and cried.

My brothers got into a fight. My oldest brother slept with my younger brother’s new wife, who was like 20 years younger than him. They got into a fist fight and broke through the wall of their dad’s trailer. The police had to be called. Aaaand that’s why I stopped going to family evening. This was by no means an unusual occurrence, just the first thing that came to mind.

The woman my cousin had just married stole a Costco sized box of individually wrapped Cheezit packages from our garage. I just happened to notice they were gone when putting food in the fridge. Asked about it publicly and she locked up, started stuttering, and went to get them out of her car. She returned with the excuse “I thought these were mine. I have a box just like them at home”.

This isn’t an isolated thing, but if someone doesn’t show up for thanksgiving or Christmas we automatically check the inmate records at the county jail. It’s happened a few times that someone’s absence is accounted for by an arrest and/or jail stay.
In 2016 my brother was a no show for Christmas and we checked the jails website. We saw our unique last name on their roster and assumed he’d been arrested. Turns out it was my uncle. I never did ask my brother where he was that year.

Big Thanksgiving dinner at the in-laws, even my inlaws’ extended family members were there, and out of nowhere my mom tries to start a conversation with “I’m not a racist but…” and I didn’t even hear the rest because I was laughing because she most definitely was a racist. That was the last year she was invited.

My husband’s brother and his sister-in-law (who was married to his OTHER brother) always disappeared for about 20-40 minutes at the same time.
This happened for four years in a row before anyone got nosey enough to go looking for them.
Sister-in-law is now married to the Thanksgiving Hookup Brother.

Not sure if it counts, but my girlfriend and I were getting really serious and so our families had Thanksgiving together for the first time. It was a huge deal for us and our families and it was a great day. She broke up with me the next day.

We were hosting thanksgiving and prepared all the food ourselves and my mom spend all morning cooking and baking. My aunt, uncle and cousins arrive right before dinner and walk in with a White Castle case and said they just stopped to eat a few minutes ago. We had prepared thanksgiving just for them and they decided that they wanted White Castle instead.

My aunt and uncle showed up an hour late to dinner. My aunt then proceeded to yell at all of us because we started eating without her. The rest of the family still makes jokes about it and some are still not on speaking terms with her.

We were hosting a young lady my wife worked with, as well as her boyfriend. Halfway through dinner and somehow the discussion got to how her and her brother “once got super trashed on Robitussin, and next thing you know we … Uh … Yeah that was really a weird time.”
Everyone just got really quiet as we were trying to decide how to fill that one in and where to go with it. For some reason they got really quiet after that.

I have a crazy cousin who came after not being invited and then yelled at everyone because no one brought the “special bread” her son likes and now he’s STARVING. Maybe bring your own Hawaiian sweet bread if that’s the only thing your spawn will eat.
She then boxed up a large portion of the leftovers and left and was unseen until the next unfortunate family function.

My brother in law’s father went out to the refrigerator we keep in the garage and ate both pumpkin pies we made before dinner was even served.

I don’t think this constitutes as trashy, but my uncle hosted Thanksgiving last year. It was amidst all the drama about kneeling during the national anthem in the NFL. So naturally instead of having a small prayer before the dinner, he had us stand for the national anthem.

She was responsible for bringing the dessert. She showed up 3 hours late and instead of bringing dessert she brought an open bag of frozen pierogis. It was a real downer.

I told my girlfriends sister in law the brides maids dresses she picked out were tacky. Thinking i was talking to someone else in the family. I proceeded to tell her they looked like whoopi goldberg in sister act. She still despises me.

One thanksgiving my family (grandparents and aunt’s family) were all eating at a buffet that was decorated extensively with a ton of gourds, pumpkins, general thanksgivingy decorations… and we all started taking them back to our table every time we went to the buffet table. We had our entire table covered before the staff started to notice. Trashy but hilarious!
