The ride is centered on the fictional Jamestown-esque "Autumn Falls", where the residents, presented as Pilgrim Fathers, must gather turkeys for the year's Thanksgiving. Riders are equipped with "turkey callers" they use to tag birds as they pass through the town. At the conclusion of the ride, riders' scores are tallied up, and a winner is decided between the four riders in each vehicle.[1]
