    I'll never understand why trees that have grown 80 - 90 years have to be destroyed for our viewing pleasure. Just my two cents.

      At least it's recycled after the holidays.

      Usually the property owner donating it wants the tree removed because an old tree is a hazard to buildings nearby. It's not like old-growth is being cut down for this.

      (: I can understand, but that is one Tree, worst are those who start fires, and destroy hundreds of trees!!!!!

    79 feet I think that's tall enough.

    A crime! I’ll never understand a custom that annually destroys tens of thousands of not millions of trees. I’m not a tree hugger but to do this to a tree that was not in anyone’s way is revolting.

    I just read the lights and bulbs are still in a cargo ship, anchored off Long Beach, and delivery date not until April.

      It just proves that even in this Century, we are still living in the "Dark Ages" ... That's just what it seems like!!!!! ... 😢 I hope that everyone can "get by" during this year's Holidays ... right now, things still look a little rough!!!!! I think too that maybe thought more of giving instead of spending on so much extravaganza that is for a short time, and it isn't like it is one of the greatest years to be celebrating big!!!!! Still it is a year to celebrate surviving this horrible pandemia, but just doing things more appropriate "to the times"!!!!!
      (: May our Christmas Gifts be Blessings this year!!!!! ... 🎄❤
      (: May no one be without anything this year ... I thing that would be a great goal to work on, instead of crazy resolutions we never end up doing anyways!!!!! ... ☺😚

    Why can't Rockefeller just use a fake tree instead⁉️

      It would be disrespectful to the workers in the great depression, which they had less pay

    Christ is the reason we remember Christ.mas.
    Don't do as the pagans do, cutting down trees and decorating them.
    This is idolatry, idol worship.
    God hates idol worship.
    Unlearn the pagan ways!

      The Christmas tree tradition started by a Christian dude stopping a pagan ritual, lol

      Life started with stone and lumber, if we don't have lumber we would be much more in the past
