If more people in Minnesota knew how to have a good time without getting drunk, maybe the ginormous holiday light display in Minnetrista would still be lit.
But they don’t, so Ryan Kasper-Cook has pulled the plug, he tells KARE 11.
Up to 500 cars a night invade his neighborhood to see the show, and apparently that’s OK with the residents. It’s a new trend in Minnesota that’s causing problems: Party buses full of rowdy Christmas light fans.
“The visitors are usually pretty rowdy and intoxicated,” Kasper-Cook said.
He made the announcement on his Facebook page.
After careful consideration, our Minnetrista home in Minnesota will be ending the 2017 season early due to rowdy party…

The announcement has illuminated the dark side of Christmas light shows.
If any of this sounds appealing to you, Kasper-Cook says you can have his light show and he’ll set it up at your house.
