Rudolph was seen fleeing the scene with a bloody nose, and an elf who wished to remain anonymous has informed police of the where about of the godfather. Mounties were dispatched to the North Pole to apprehend the suspect, also charged with illegally distributing goods and multiple counts of break and enter.

No word in the article if they were associated with Santarchy, but with drunken Santas it is a good bet. Mefi, Google.

Then again, none of the news stories, mention Santarchy.

If Santa is naughty, does he get presents on Christmas?

That's just like "The Man"...

Squash the Jolly right out of Santa himself...

Apparently, they brawl.

Also, they apparently molest the elves.

When I clicked on dismitree's link and saw the photo of all the Santas in the street, I misread the caption as "The Santa race has taken Newtown since 2001." You know, the Santa race, like a master race, only jollier. I mean, what race did you think the centuries-old Santa was from?

I've been booked to edit a TV special about Santachy this year. Looks like it ought to be interesting :)
