You may have seen it. It's called "The Great Christmas Light Fight."

The grand prize is $50,000

Families from all over the country show off their extravagant Christmas light displays in hopes of winning the grand prize of $50,000.

All of the displays shown have become a bright spot in their communities, no pun intended. Neighbors gather, strangers come from afar to check out the lights, and in many cases, food, toys, or money is collected for the less fortunate.

Home in Pennsauken featured on the show

A home on Bryn Mawr Avenue in Pennsauken competed on the show this holiday season, and oh boy, it's something special. There are 82,000 Christmas lights.

It had been a goal of the Hak family to be on the show. They've been fans of the show for years. Brian, Jenn, and their two daughters work for months each year to put on a spectacular light show. The theme of the lights is "Summer in December."

After a social media search, producers of the show reached out to them and wanted to feature them.
