Did You Know?
"On the house" means free, while Santa's sleigh literally lands on rooftops! The modern image of Santa's sleigh pulled by reindeer was popularized by Clement Clarke Moore's 1823 poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (also known as "'Twas the Night Before Christmas"). Santa's original eight reindeer are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen. Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer was added in 1939. The phrase "on the house" originated from tavern owners offering free drinks!
