The Marrying Turkey makes love, not war.  8)

He tore Piggy-Wig apart with his bare hands, despite being a turkey and thus not actually having hands.

Would it make any difference if the turkey's name was Marion?

While I had heard of the poem "The Owl and The Pussycat," I never felt the urge to read it until seeing this. All the elements seen in the movie are there:

Owl, Check. Pussycat, check, Porcine ring-bearer into body art, check. Justice Of The Peace of the species Meleagris gallopavo, check.

I also didn't know that bongs grew on trees, though suspect author Edward Lear smoked one as much as the incoherent announcer lady seems to have.

The Marrying Turkey was a sham, to all appearances in this 'movie' (read: ad for a parade balloon provision company from the year I was born, proving you could sell absolutely anything in the twenty years or so after WWII and make money doing it - at least enough to produce something like this, which would've a lot bigger of a deal to do then than it would be now!)

To wit: I witnessed no 'marrying' whatsoever, either of said turkey to another turkey, or with this dubious wedding bird officiating or even attending anyone else's marriage. I am wondering if this is based on a lyric to a children's song or folk ditty I never managed to ever hear.

When I tried to find info on the company the descriptions of the balloons I found for other parades they did listed a "Tom Turkey".  Now perhaps Tom was able to perform weddings but I'm starting to think the crazy and or drunk narrator lady made up the whole marrying thing on the spot...

So I checked the Internet for any page with the phrase "Marrying Turkey." I got a few results about marriage in Turkey, a few articles about how they were "marrying Turkey with [SOME OTHER ACTIVITY]," Rifftrax mentions, and that's it. The Marrying Turkey only exists in the fevered brain of the Narrator...

Contemplating the question: although everyone seems to agree the Ice Cream Bunny is the winner here in creepiness, all he can do is leave you feeling freaked out and maybe craving frozen desserts.

But the Marrying Turkey gets my vote. You encounter that bird, you could end up married. No further comments.
