Why it works as a party game

The work is happening anyway. Turn it into a Thanksgiving party game and the kitchen clears faster.

How to play

  1. Set out empty containers and a list: turkey, sides, pie.
  2. Teams pack and lid. Spills restart that container.
  3. Carry to the counter, not yet into a crowded fridge.
  4. First complete, labeled set wins.

Hosting tips

  • Do not race with hot liquids.
  • One person still owns the real fridge Tetris.
  • Prize is going home with the pie they packed.
