If you find yourself wondering this season, if your holiday decor hasn't lingered a little too long, take comfort in this scene from Yonda's Bar in Binghamton, New York. Yonda's was established in 1930 and was known both for its low prices, and for the holiday decorations that adorned the walls all year.
