Love the Big Santa !!!
Many fond memories of that Santa as a child back in the 60s and 70s! Remember Hermans Sporting Goods and Arcadian Gardens in what was an outdoor mall.
I sure do. Loved that mall back then.
…Back when saying Christmas was legal.
Didn’t understand the reason for reserving tickets for the event. No one was able to answer my question on why😟. I thought I was going to be VIP but needed to be given another pass🤷🏻♀️
