Good lord. It had never occurred to me that there might be a passel of them. But I always did wonder about Santa's proclivity for breaking into homes.

Great stuff, I love the idea, perhaps they went a bit OTT in the execution. I'd like to see it happen everywhere.

Protesting about the over commercialisation of Christmas is one thing BUT Drunken Rampaging and theft is hardly a recommended procedure !

So this is going to be a "world wide movement against the commercialism of Christmas"??? Heck, it is too commercial but I ain't gonna get up on no overpasss and urinate on cars passing under me... Yeah, that's 'bout the time I look at the leader an say, "No,No,No" to his "Ho,Ho,Ho"...

Oh, and hitting folks with beer bottles ain't too cool either...

There was one of those set up for Australia too, but the local council pulled the plug - something about being worried about 2000 santa suited yobbos who had been drinking for several hours - was called "The Santa Pub Crawl" - it also seemed that somehow the name forboded something ill too.... :-)

From the Newcastle Evening Chronicle reported on this weeks News Quiz (Radio 4)

Police were called to the atrium of the Coronation Shopping Centre when internal security staff were unable to restrain a reindeer which was rolling around on the floor and shouting obscenities.
The officers eventually managed to undress the two halfs and seperate the men inside.

The front half, James Kirk, told them that the rear half, Warren O'Donnel, had been drinking during the lunch break and now refused to squeeze the battery powered switch which connected to the nose and made it switch on and off.

"If you are Rudolph" said Kirk, "people expect you to have a red nose - without it you look ****** ridulous"!

If they did it in Paris they should be thrown in the river - guilty but in Seine (thus proving there is a Sanity Clause)

I'll get me red coat and beard.............

Dressing as Santa and doing some stupid clowning could be considered
a protest against commercialization. Attacking people, injuring them by throwing bottles, and urinating in public is more like a protest against basic human decency.

"James Kirk???" It couldn't be! William Shatner in reindeer drag rolling on the floor of a bar without a red nose? Just doesn't seem likely. Although he could just be priming himself for his visit with Spaw.

Couldn't be the real Shatner, Sinsull. Note that this one was in the front half of Rudolph. (Sorry, Bill)
