I wonder if they had a rule that they had to do it themselves instead of paying other people to do some lavish, over the top display. It wouldn't be much of a contest if they both just paid people to do it.

Watch the video at that link, I tried to embed it to use Zero's fancy tools but unfortunately I only know how to do youtube.

Anyway, Greg did his by himself and with his cousin so it sounds like it is something they do on their own. If you look close too they do a solid job with a simple display. I like it.

Gotta go with Jennings on this one. His display is just classier, hate those icicle lights that Jones has.

Maybe Zero can answer this, but in Gb I am not sure they have those HUGE mansions??

Jones lives across the street from one of the scale techs I work with, its not that big of a house.

One of Favre's was pretty big though.

I know where Jennings lives, but never drove past to stalk, err check it out.

I'm disappointed. I was expecting a Griswold  like effort.




Greg wins... It is a subliminal Message.. Notice there are only TWO BLUE EXHIIBITS That Stand Out...

The one in the front, represents Donald Driver grazing in the pasture over the middle.

The Second Blue Exhibit represents Greg... Wide Open Deep Down Field.

Every year La Crosse puts on the Rotary Festival of Lights in Riverside Park, with the number of lights growing each year. This year it featured over 2.6 million lights. See video below.

http://www.wkbt.com/Global/story.asp?S=11569809 

Here is a video from 2007, but as I said, the number of lights has grown significantly since then:

Here is a video of the north side of the park, featuring the synchronized music-light display from this year.

From last year:

From 2006:

None of the videos do this display any justice. You must see it for yourself. I am a Grinch and even I like the display. Admission is free but they accept donations of food or cash.
