Every year from 2005 - 2023, on the Friday after Thanksgiving, the Turkey Bowl World Championship tournament is held. This is a gentleman’s flag-football tournament decided at Golden Bear Stadium in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
This tournament was founded in the spirit of camaraderie, competition, and a commitment to excellence.
It has the tradition and mystique of an Army v Navy game, but also the caliber of athletes and level of shit-talk you find when Florida plays Miami. Many young men have laced up their cleats and tried their hand at obtaining championship glory. Win lose or draw, every participant is an initiate into this exclusive fraternal order.
At its essence, the Turkey Bowl is a brotherhood.
