"Oh my goodness. I don't want to even get started about how we have been untangling," says Jeremy Coleman, who handles community relations and special events for the Sugar Land Skeeters. Baseball season segues into the holidays, and Coleman says it's an all hands on deck endeavor, with him splitting time between back office logistics and front line installation. And if any entrepreneurs out there can think up an invention for preventing tangled holiday lights, Coleman says he's interested. "I would be the first one to buy it."
Those gigawatt-happy folks over at Constellation Field already boast more than 100 displays, and they've amped up this year's show by adding something for everybody. "We've been working on a Kwanzaa theme. No one is isolated or missing out," says Coleman, though we're not sure if Festivus made the list.
