Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer is a novelty Christmas song, and the eponymous animated movie. Written by Randy Brooks, the song was originally performed by the husband and wife duo of Elmo and Patsy Shropshire in 1979. In the lyrics, the grandmother of the family gets drunk from drinking too much eggnog, and decides to return home to retrieve her forgotten medication. In the course of her walk, she is run over by Santa and killed (however, the video has her stagger alive at the end). According to Brooks, he played the song while sitting in with Elmo & Patsy at the Hyatt Lake Tahoe in December 1978, and after the show they had him make a cassette of the song for them to learn. A year later, they were selling 45s of the song from the stage, and a friend took a copy to KSFO in San Francisco where disc jockey Gene Nelson became the first to play it on the air.

    Listening to this song on the radio in my dad's Oldsmobile while headed to grandma's house for Christmas... a memorable part of childhood. We knew every word of this song. Quite the classic. Poor grandma! (Neither of my grandmothers drank, so they did not meet such a gory end.)
