Relive the “You’ll shoot your eye out” scene atop Santa’s Mountain
Have your picture taken with Santa on top of Santa’s Mountain, a replica of the one featured in the movie. In the famous scene, Ralphie Parker asks Santa for an Official Red Rider BB Gun, and Santa responds, “You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.”
Photos with Santa on Santa’s Mountain are available between Thanksgiving and Christmas, every Saturday and Sunday between 11am and 3pm, during the week of Christmas (December 19th to 23rd 11am to 2pm) at the Indiana Welcome Center. Children have the opportunity to slide down a big red slide into a pillow of snow. Photos are $5 apiece.
Visit www.aChristmasStoryComesHome.com for a complete list of special events, contests, hours of operation and directions. TheWelcomeCenter gift shop offers an array of movie memorabilia including the infamous leg lamp! The Indiana Welcome Center is located at the intersection of I-80/94 and Kennedy Avenue South in Hammond; only 30 minutes from downtown Chicago and 2 hours north of Indianapolis.
