21. The Turkey That Guarded a Parking Lot

In a small town in Massachusetts, a rogue turkey claimed ownership of a grocery store parking lot. For weeks, the feathery menace chased cars, blocked shopping carts, and even pecked at reflective hubcaps. One unlucky customer dropped her eggs mid-sprint as the turkey flapped and gobbled menacingly behind her.

Animal control eventually relocated the bird, but the legend lived on. Locals nicknamed him “Tom the Tollbooth,” claiming he only attacked people who didn’t return their carts. The store later installed a cardboard cutout of Tom as a “parking enforcer”—his glare still deters the lazy.
