Archie the Talking Snowman, a 22-foot Akron holiday icon, is still making winter magic thanks to local actor Brandon Meeker. For five years, Meeker has brought Archie to life at Lock 3, delighting generations with his booming baritone and quick improv. Archie’s playful banter, glowing blue eyes, and even the occasional trip to the 'naughty list' keep the tradition fresh. This year, fans can celebrate at the first-ever Archie Fan Club Day, complete with treats, merch, and book signings. What’s your favorite Archie memory—or do you remember his old red eyes? #Entertainment #Celebrity #Akron
