PHOENIX — Thanksgiving is a day to be thankful, and it seems like people in Arizona might be thankful that they’ve found a place to put their car while they eat turkey.

That’s because Google revealed that “parking lot” is Arizona’s most popular unique search term on Thanksgiving day, according to a graphic tweeted out by the tech giant:

One other state, Louisiana, had the same phrase as its most popular.

Several other states’ most popular search phrases on Thanksgiving were related to transportation and travel, as Arizona’s was. Florida’s most popular was “airport shuttle service,” Virginia’s was “transit station” and Texas’ was “bicycle sharing location.”

Google also recently revealed the most commonly-searched pie recipes and side dishes by state, and Arizona’s were pumpkin pie and pumpkin rolls, respectively. The most commonly-searched alternative to turkey in Arizona? Shrimp.
