On November 20 One True King community streamers hosted an entertainment event called OTK Friendsgiving 2022.

Streams Charts tells you how many viewers watched the Friendsgiving broadcast.
OTK was formed in 2020 by Asmongold, Mizkif and EsfandTV. Later, Sodapoppin, Tectone, Emiru, RichCampbell and other creators joined the community. OTK Network is an association of popular Twitch streamers who work together to create entertaining content on broadcasts. For example, they play SMITE and League of Legends tournaments with each other, or participate in sports reality shows where they train with professional fitness trainers.
The concept of Friendsgiving emerged in the mid-2000s and in some sense it is an alternative to the family Thanksgiving Day, which is traditionally celebrated in North America on the fourth Thursday of November. If Thanksgiving itself is usually celebrated with close family members, Friendsgiving is a day to bring together a bunch of friends (or those who, for some reason, can not celebrate it with relatives). The format of Friendsgiving is pretty much the same as Thanksgiving — people have a good time, have fun, and make a big dinner with a roast turkey as the main course.
This isn't the first Friendsgiving hosted by OTK streamer community. This year, the creators invited many friends, with whom they took part in quizzes, cracked jokes, had fun, showed various skits, answered provocative questions and of course cooked a celebratory dinner.
