"I have a 3 year old and the reason we went there was for him to see Santa. SANTA WAS A JERK! My son waited in line during a cold and snowy afternoon and the first thing Santa told him was that his thick GAP black and red jacket made him look like Paul Bunyan. Then he also pointed out my son's Toronto Maple leafs winter toque and said he shouldnt be wearing that and that the Maple leafs suck!" she wrote...
...Unfortunately, this scrooge is just the latest to strike this holiday season. In November, police arrested a man attending Kingston, Ont.'s Santa Claus Parade who was allegedly drunk and told children Santa is not real.
South of the border, a mall Santa in Maine was recently fired after patrons said he was rude, and would not let a girl sit on his lap because her family did not purchase a $20 photo package.
Maybe not the popular opinion around here, but if you're hired and payed to play Santa, then you're hired and payed to play a happy jolly guy who's nice to children. If you start harassing children or talking smack about their favorite football club then you're not doing your job properly.
