    stadiums full of hungry fans (the average NFL/AFL football arena holds
    about 70,000 fans),
  * 2.5 million pounds of potatoes or 5 pounds of potatoes -- every day --
    for almost 8 years to the first Pilgrims who celebrated a Thanksgiving
    Day meal (about 175 people),
  * 8.7 million ounces of canned green beans and 9.5 million ounces of
    canned corn, or enough green beans and corn to fill the one and half
    times Big Bird Balloon that floats over New York's Times Square in the
    Thanksgiving Day Parade (the Big Bird Balloon holds 12,000 cubic feet of
    helium),
  * 5 million ounces of nuts or 2 elephants eating 300 pounds of nuts per
    day, for almost 18 months (elephants consume 300 pounds of grass a day),
    2.4 million ounces of canned gravy or enough to fill 392 bathtubs, and
  * 4.7 million tablets of Antacids stacking one on top of the other, that
    stack would be 18 miles high, or 3 times as tall as Mount Everest.
