One more dad filler fabric...

I don't remember how the incident started, if it was an accident in front of the house, or a domestic dispute, or what, as I was too young to know. However, my older siblings watched from the porch, and dad had a mug "commemorating" the event that I do remember.
Something happened in front of our house, and dad, being a cop, went out to get things under control. During the event, a man attacked him, jumping on my dad's back and yelling for someone to "call the police!" My dad replied back "I am the police, you turkey!" I had always wondered what that coffee mug with a turkey was about, as it seemed pretty random. My dad retold this story during a long drive earlier this summer. Mystery solved, and fabric added to the quilt!
