Description
Three year old Troy Pritchard chasing a turkey with an unidentified girl at the annual "Turkey Trot" held at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. Transcribed on the back of the picture: "Tables turned. Three year old Troy Pritchard forgot this old adage about the tables being turned, as he was chasing Mr. Gobbler in the annual 'Turkey Trot,' held at the Sands Hotel here--- and it looks as though Troy will have a poignant memory of this Thanksgiving for some time to come."
