Growing Christmas Trees in a pot

I was wondering I i grow a christmas in a pot or buy one to put in a pot still alive and take it inside how bad of a fire hazard is that? if I leave it unlit most of the time? then can i plant it at the end of the season? im trying to cut down on waste and notice that there is people growing xmas trees in pots but they are little. I was wonder how hard it would be to put them in large pots so forth and use them?

If a standard 6-7 foot Christmas tree were to have an adequate root structure in a pot the whole thing would probably weigh 200+ pounds. If the tree is alive with its roots it shouldn't be a fire hazard.
