THE MOST VALUABLE TURKEY AWARD
Implemented Turkey Bowl XIV

While we all know Turkey Bowlers age like fine wine, some of us may require additional motivation to be all that we can be. With this in mind, the newest addition to this year's Turkey Bowl Award Ceremony will include the Most Valuable Turkey (MVT) award.

This award is not intended to go to the worst player of the Turkey Bowl. It shall be awarded to whomever shows up the most out of shape, the most lazy, or the least prepared to play. Also acceptable will be whomever has the most memorable day, and by that the most embarrassing moment... for example, puking, horrendous fumbling, bad decision making, etc.

This less than prestigious honor shall be voted on by everyone who attends this year's Turkey Bowl for the greatest potential of making jokes at the recipient's expense.

In the event that no such player is deemed to be worthy as the recipient of the award for this year, the Turkey Bowler that is voted to have had the most "Turkey" Award winning moments in the past will be the keeper of the trophy. The award shall be presented in the form of a ceramic beer mug dawning the title MVT in which the winner shall give a toast that signifies the end of the event.
