Dr. Wetbrain and Harold Go to A Santa Con.
“Harold shut that T.V. off!” Dr. Wetbrain excitedly yelled as he stormed into the house. “Get your elf costume on. I have 2 tickets for Santa Con. I’ll go find my Santa suit.”
Harold confused asks, “What’s a Santa Con?”
“Let me tell you on the way there.” The doctor said in earnest.
Santa Crawl and Santa Con.
Once upon a time there was the Santa Crawl where a group of people dressed up in Santa theme attire would go Bar Hopping. The Crawl advanced to a more commercialized version and called this Christmas event ‘Santa Con’.
From Vancouver, B.C., Canada to Scottsdale, Arizona, U.S.A there is this new fad that takes place around the middle of December. Well, it’s not new, apparently this party started in 1994 in San Francisco. What happens on this night is first you must purchase tickets for this Christmas event either online or from the sponsoring bar. Next, at this bar suddenly everywhere there is Santa, elves and perhaps a Grinch sipping on their 2 free drinks. Finally at a certain time all the Christmas characters hop onto a chartered bus and visit all the participating night clubs they can handle. Usually 4 stops. I’m sure a few elves were napping on the bus during the last stop. Good chance most participants had 1 or 6 drinks while getting their costumes on.
At certain Santa Cons all the participants donned in their Santa attire will parade down Main Street overpopulating the better night clubs one at a time. A few times the party crowd would be dressed only as Santa.

Santa Crawl Fun Facts.
– There was a Santa Crawl in 2013, New York, where things went a little awry. A Santa Crawl brawl broke out on the street. Drunk Santa, elves, and a Grinch started getting arrested. What a hilarious sight that would have been. Check out the video!

Conclusion.
Dr. Wetbrain skipped into the house with drunk Harold the little elf in tow.
“Wasn’t that a great time! You know you look pretty good in that elf costume. Your height, big ears, and all.”, the doctor said.
“You know I could kill you with this huge candy cane.” Was Harold’s come back.
Merry Christmas from Harold and Dr. Wetbrain.
