An ‘Elf’ Christmas Story: 30,000 Hats, Spaghetti With Maple Syrup And Alamo Drafthouse Watch Parties That Sleigh It At The Box Office

This fall, it rolled out on November 4 at the Texas-based chain’s Corpus Christie theater to play at all of its 38 locations. This year, Alamo Yonkers is the top Elf grosser with $21.7k on its own, and the chain has eight of the top ten theaters nationally for Elf.
Shows start filling up within days of putting them on the website, a month or more ahead and with no advertising. “We’ve joked about it every year, but we might wind up just putting some shows on sale for the following year. Like [live] theater tickets.”
Alamo first brought the film back as a holiday special in 2007, four years after its initial release. It became a
