Fox News’ Jesse Watters took a trip down to Plantation, Florida, this week to cover a battle that’s been unfolding for quite some time between a local family and government officials surrounding an annual Christmas light display.

The massive annual show, known as “Hyatt Extreme Christmas,” is run by Kathy and Mark Hyatt at their home, and has become a must-see tradition for many locals over the past two decades.

Watters ended up approaching Plantation Mayor Diane Veltri Bendekovic as she was exiting a grocery story to ask her about the ongoing litigation — and as you can imagine, she wasn’t too thrilled to encounter him.

“It’s just brought so much happiness to so many families,” one woman proclaimed.

When asked why he believes that the government has gone after the display, Mark Hyatt said that he thinks it is all “about money.”
