All Right, All Right, All Right: Matthew McConaughey Helped Pass Out 4,500 Turkeys on His Birthday
Is that Rust Cohle trying to do right by his neighbors?
Nope, but boy do we miss True Detective season one. This past weekend, Matthew McConaughey (aka Rust) surprised a bunch of families in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, when he and 250 volunteers showed up in the Southern town and passed out 4,500 Butterball turkeys just in time for Thanksgiving.
McConaughey teamed up with Wild Turkey whiskey to bring the sweet gesture to life and posted a Facebook Live video to document the event. At the end of his intro to the video, he added, “And it’s my birthday.” Good man.
But seriously, who needs a turkey when you have McConaughey on your doorstep? (We’ll take a shot of that whiskey to calm ourselves, please.)
