Not really an invite, so much as a ticket for sale.

    This is so sweet! I love how this tradition of theirs has continued all these years later.

      Touching story, but a little weird that it’s sort of an AirBNB ad

        I agree, but only to a point. They’ve included people in their Thanksgiving plans for years. This is just the latest gimmick of theirs. They’ve even appeared on a Gameshow. And they’re not really making money off of this either. The price for those rooms is just $16 harkening back to 2016, the year of their accidental encounter.

          You don’t usually appear in an ad without getting a paycheck from the company

            I want to believe that this

            Airbnb is also making an undisclosed donation to Feeding America — the United States’ largest hunger relief organization — as part of the promotion.

            Is the “payment” that they are receiving. Just more warm vibes. But if anyone has more details and wants to further shatter my faith in humanity, go ahead.
