EXPLOREUM AFTER HOURS: 'NATIONAL LAMPOON'S CHRISTMAS VACATION'

The Exploreum is lighting up the holidays, hopefully without blowing a fuse, at a 21-plus screening of the holiday classic "National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation" on Saturday, Dec. 6, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Exploreum Science Center. Costumes are encouraged, it's BYOB/W and the perfect pregame before venturing into downtown Mobile's nightlife. Door prizes will be awarded for the best ugly sweater or Clark Griswold-inspired holiday gear. Tickets are now live and can be purchased in advance at http://bit.ly/48hoJtz. These events do tend to sell out, so be sure to purchase them well ahead of time.
