50 Santas Whose Laps No One Should Sit On

Santa Claus is kind of weird when you think about it.  We tell kids there’s this old man, living in a frozen wasteland with monster servants working his factory, and once a year he’ll break in, eat your food, and leave something. 

It’s even stranger that parents bring their kids to this guy and make them sit on his lap. Especially because the reality is, he’s not that creepy magical man, he’s just some random guy at the mall.

Despite all this, Santa is generally greeted by kids with joy and wonder. But a couple of times every year, a guy just can’t live up to the role and ends up ruining Christmas. Here are some Santa that made kids cry, got drunk, got arrested or worse.
