Description

Join dozens of besotted Santas as we tour the central shopping district of of our great city, spreading holiday fear, I mean cheer. This ride is a long standing and proud tradition. OK, some have called it shameful, but either way, at least it's long standing, so no half-a$$ed costumes will be tolerated. Full Santa regalia is strictly enforced, though Grinches and Elves may be grudgingly allowed. There are rumors that someone in a Grinch costume survived the ride once. There are also rampant allegations of Elf abuse, that I can neither confirm, nor deny at this time. Wear what you dare, but you have been warned.
Also beware of a fringe group of riders calling themselves "Dreidels" that have appeared in years past, with the goal of co-opting, or even commandeering our ride. Their costumes may seem laughable, but their tactics are sinister, and they are not to be underestimated.

Which of these looks should I be going for?

 

I'm torn between the "Kill It With Fire!" Santa and the "No Means No" Santa...

hmmm, already have a jester bell collar which can easily pass for an elf accessory, I think. can't buy anything new so please don't kick me out, santas.
