31. History of Disney's Christmas Parades: Unusual Beginnings, Toy Soldiers, and Spitting Llamas
Description
Marching toy soldiers and dancing reindeer weren't around when Disneyland had its first Christmas parade in 1955. In fact, the parade barely hinted at the holidays, and instead was a promotional event for something quite different indeed. In this episode of Distory, we walk through the history of Disneyland's Christmas parades, discovering a few unexpected surprises and mishaps along the way.
