    "Years ago they had fireworks in the plaza, a carnival, then they would have Santa in the Plaza, Santa was actually my uncle incidentally I was conflicted even into my teenage years as to the validity of Santa as he seemed to know way too much about me personally, anyway it felt very family oriented 30 years ago, not so much now"
