The other big event of Thanksgiving Day is NFL football (usually NFL games are played on Sundays, but Thanksgiving Day has two special games each year).
And many TV shows and cartoons etc. feature Thanksgiving Day themes, like the Tom and Jerry cartoon, "The Little Orphan" (1949) you can watch in three short parts below.
