Grandma got run over a reindeer — at an upstate turkey trot!
A pack of rogue deer knocked two women off their feet during Watertown, NY’s annual Turkey Day Run on Nov. 28 — a wild caught-on-camera ordeal that spurred many on social media to liken it to the goofy Christmas tune, “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer.”
“Never did I dream I would see this song come to life,” a Facebook user wrote.
Another person quipped, “Truly a classic and we finally witnessed it.”
