Everyone tends to have their own special Thanksgiving traditions and favorites, and Tyler Farr talks about a few of his. (AUDIO INFO BELOW)
Tyler Farr talks about his favorite Thanksgiving side item. (:18)
“My grandma, my mom and aunt and them — they always make chicken and dumplin’s, with the gravy on the mashed potatoes, all out. You know, that’s, hands down, my favorite side, the potatoes and the gravy. Add some weight onto my back thighs, so it looks like somebody hit me in the back of the legs with a bag of nickels, after I leave, so that’s my one thing.”
Tyler Farr talks turkey and says that he’s been known to bypass the store and bring home his own turkey. (:22)
“I don’t do turkeys the same…you don’t do turkeys, or I don’t, the same way you do like a actual turkey you go buy at the store. It’s not the big, whole turkey, you know, the turkeys you, you know, harvest in the wild and stuff. Now, what I do, you’d breast ’em out and stuff — you don’t do the whole thing, which I think actually tastes better. But yeah, I’ve had some and cut it up, and I’m a dark meat guy, not a white meat guy.”
Tyler Farr says that he’s usually tapped to play one of a few different roles when it comes to holiday backyard family football. (:23)
“I get thrown around ’cause I was…not a lot of people in my family played football. Now, a lot of ’em are athletic and stuff, but I’ll usually be the quarterback or the wide receiver. I’m the fast one, so I…I don’t know about these days, if I’m the fast one still. All those nightclubs and those tour dates may have slowed me down a little bit, but it’s always fun. I usually get winded after about two plays, but I’m a huge football fan, huge SEC fan.”
