It features Earl moving a Christmas tree in his red truck, with several Universal easter eggs hidden around him (a hint about the Tribute Store’s theming, according to Team Members).

A globe is also one of the ornaments, representing the Universal icon.

Instead of Earl’s Tree Farm, the truck is frum Amity Tree Farm — Amity is the town terrorized by Bruce the shark. The logo says it was established in 1975, the year “Jaws” was released.
