Which holiday connects with Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant Massacree"?

  • Christmas

  • New Year's Day

  • Thanksgiving

  • Easter

Answer

The Thanksgiving holiday is famously associated with Arlo Guthrie's satirical folk song, "Alice's Restaurant Massacree." The 18-minute song recounts Guthrie's humorous encounters with the law on Thanksgiving Day in 1965, including his arrest for littering and his subsequent attempts to avoid the draft. The song has become a countercultural anthem and a staple of the holiday season, often played on the radio and at gatherings during Thanksgiving.
