Christmas just isn't Christmas without Bing Crosby
I'm a sucker for any Christmas song sung by Bing Crosby - especially "White Christmas" and "I'll be Home for Christmas." Christmas just isn't Christmas without Bing Crosby. ;)

Bing Crosby sings "White Christmas" (1966) -

7. Legend has it, Bing used to sing White Christmas to his family every year, have some eggnog, spiked
of course and then smack the crap out his kids and wife.

12. Not true...I grew up with and am friends w/ his grandson
He says those stories are ridiculously exaggerated

Bing was a good guy- just a little down sometimes
