This synchronized “Thriller” light display puts all others to shame

Anyone hoping to put on the year’s most impressive Halloween-themed light display should probably just give up right now. There is very little chance of topping what Creative Lighting Displays has achieved for an event called Thriller Nights Of Lights, currently running at Hank Aaron Stadium in Mobile, Alabama. Credibly billed as “the only show of its kind in the country,” this is a gigantic, drive-through light show synchronized to music that plays through visitors’ car radios. The fact that the display is constructed within a stadium should give readers some idea as to the enormity of its scope. It takes about half an hour to see the whole thing. The following four-minute video, set to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” gives curiosity seekers a sample of the unusual event. Unless they can watch it on a Jumbotron, however, it probably doesn’t do justice to the real thing.
