Christmas lights in Birmingham – Bringing out the “Clark Griswold” in all of us
Reading time: 2 minutes
Earlier this week, my family watched the holiday classic Christmas Vacation. The main character – Clark Griswold inspired us.
Last night, we were on a quest. We looked for Birmingham’s Clark Griswold “Christmas Vacation” house.
There were some pleasant surprises.
We found a house with a massive number of lights with the words “War Eagle” on its roof. In Vestavia, we saw an awesome light show synchronized to music. And in another neighborhood, we saw an airborne Santa on a motorcycle.
We didn’t quite find a light show that took out Chicago’s electrical grid like in the movie Christmas Vacation, but some came close.
Got pictures of Christmas light shows in Birmingham?
