You Know it's Christmas When...


...Santa shows up outside of Hot Dog Heaven in Amherst!

That's such a great statue of Santa Claus. I wish I could remember the story behind it. I recall that the statue was found lying on the roof of some business in downtown Lorain. Then Hot Dog Heaven acquired him, cleaned him all up and display him annually in front of their restaurant at 493 Cleveland Avenue in Amherst.
If you love chili dogs like I do, then you gotta get to Hot Dog Heaven. For a menu and location information, visit their website by clicking here.

UPDATE (Dec. 8, 2019)
Found this photo of a very similar Santa statue that stood outside May Company at Parmatown Mall in 1960. It was in an Arcadia Images of America book, “Cleveland’s Department Stores” by Christopher Faircloth.
