You may be thinking of another house -- they're actually pretty common now since they came out with consumer-grade computer controls for the lights.

I shudder to think what I would do if I lived anywhere near this guy. I never want to be tested like that.

Not near enough garage doors for DrLev.

The best personal display I've seen is in a small town west of Charlotte. There is some animation. He even extended his driveway from a side street all around his house. He asks for a $5 donation to drive through. Here are pics I took a few years ago.
