Thu, October 11, 2007 - 3:09 PMIt has come to my attention that some do not know what SantaCon is. Here is some helpful info (NOTE: SantCon is also known as SantArchy. They are one and the same):
Tribe:
santacon.tribe.net
The Official Site with location links (Lexington's will be up soon)
www.santacon.com/
San Fransisco SantaCon Pictures (the original location):

And here's a great video of the SF Santas descending the crookedest street (great to get some costuming ideas):

What is Santarchy? Santarchy takes place in major cities all over the world involving tens of thousands of Santas. It is a non-profit, non-political, non-religious & non-sensical celebration of holiday cheer, goodwill, and fun. There is no good reason to dress up in cheap Santa suits, run around town, sing songs, have strangers sit on our laps, and decide who is naughty or nice -- but it's a lot of fun -- so Santa does it anyway. Santarchy is not a movement (that's what you do in the bathroom). We are not a protest against Christmas or commercialization. Really, it's just a bunch of Santas getting together to have a good time. Everyone loves Santa and Santa loves everyone!
I'll be posting more details closer to the date.
HO!
