Note to Fans Dressed as Santa: Do Better Than Row ZZ.

We imagine sports fans that dress up like Santa Claus pose serious territorial concerns for indigenous mascots.

A fat, jolly man dressed as Santa Claus always trumps the hometown big-and-furry during the holiday season.  Always.  Who wouldn’t extend a high-five for ‘Ole Saint Nick as he’s walking by in the concourse or up the stadium stairs?  No one, dammit.

That said, old, uncreative Caucasians like to dress up like Santa Claus for one reason; attention.  It seems counter-intuitive to go the whole nine yards with a  real beard, boots, spectacles and a pretty kick-ass Santa suit….and settle for Row ZZ, where no one can see you.

Just another great moment in sports history, where our fan hunter caught a human in a compromised moment of hooliganism.  One minute, you’re the life of the party as the crazy guy dressed up as Santa…giving out high fives like they’re going out of style.  The next minute, you take your seat amidst a bachelor party and a Girl Scout field trip up in the nosebleeds.  Now you’re not crazy Santa fan, you’re just an old dude that’s dressed like an idiot. And you’re sweating your balls off.

It happens to the best of us.

Even Santa.
