Sassy Christmas Tree Farm Goes Full 'Magic Mike' In Viral Video

2021-12-13

A tree farm in Utah is turning Christmas magic into something that looks more akin to “Magic Mike” with a sassy viral video.“I happen to just be driving down the road and that song came on and I thought, we oughta do a dance to that,” Derek Peterson, owner of Peterson Tree Care in Elk Ridge, told Fox 13.

That clip received a few thousand views at the time. Now, it’s going viral on TikTok, where two versions of the video have received more than 3 million views combined ahead of the company’s Nov. 22 tree lot opening.

However, they’ll still be widely available.
