Slip McScruff landed a sweet product placement deal for a line of turkey deep fryers.  He would be in all the commercials shooting turkeys into deep fryers from the point with giant slap shots and saying cheesy lines like "I don't shoot often, but with the McDeepFryer, I never miss".  To set up for more catastrophe, he would take turkeys directly out of the freezer before this stunt.  In the commercials, none of the deep fryers were ever on or filled with hot oil.

Then the public decided to try their hand at it.  A series of tiktoks came out of people shooting turkeys into the deep fryer.  The first wave was not bad because they didn't turn on the deep dryer, didn't have hot oil, and just wanted to show off their skills.  Then the second wave hit.  People were setting their garages on fire and injuring their families by shooting frozen turkeys into hot oil.  The base would give out and projectile spray all this oil out at an angle.  The shooter was rarely injured because the fryer tipped away, but they were usually shot out in the driveway with the garage door behind.

Ultimately, the commercials were pulled and then the fryers had to be recalled in favor of a new wave with a stronger base.  The company decided to partner with a basketball player because there is less of a liability when the turkey goes in from above instead of a slapshot.
