Welsh Town Spends $5,000 on World’s Shittiest Christmas Tree

If anything, this hurts the holiday spirit more than it helps.

The Christmas tree feels a bit dated, right? It’s a classic tradition, but we’ve done them the same way for hundreds of years — surely we can innovate on this and make something fun, right?

Well, wrong. Every time that someone has tried to change up the Christmas tree, it’s ended with something that either looks bad or, in one case, is clearly a butt plug.

Still, people keep trying. This town in Wales decided to change things up and, rather than use a proper tree, they strung some lights up against a green tarp. Somehow, this cost the city £4,000, or around $5,000 USD. Money well spent!
