Most kids who have drawn the ire of their parents are usually threatened with a lump of coal in their stockings for Christmas.

For Patriots wideout Kendrick Bourne, it was … a trash can?

“I got a funny one. My parents got me and my brothers a trash can for Christmas. That was the worst,” Bourne told MassLive’s Nick O’Malley about a memorable gift. “We needed it though. We actually needed it for our room. So it was good.”

“Did your parents have hearts? That’s the next question,” another reporter asked the veteran.
