Thousands feast at Oakland's annual Thanksgiving lunch
OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- More than 2,000 people in the East Bay received an early Thanksgiving feast on Tuesday, thanks in part to Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson.
The Warriors staff dished up plates of turkey and sides to-low income families and community members at Oakland City Center.
The annual Thanksgiving dinner event, now in its 23rd year, is one of the biggest free dinners in the Bay Area.
Thompson pitched in $20,000 to help make it happen this year.
Those in attendance also received a free winter coat.
