A large mass of people clad as Santa Claus and other holiday-inspired characters took over Las Olas Boulevard and the Himmarshee night life district in Fort Lauderdale on a recent Saturday night. They were participating in SantaCon, a mix of a Christmas parade, flash mob and pub crawl where participants carol and hand out trinkets.

Costumes included steampunk Santa, hipster Santa, lumberjack Santa, robot Santas, pregnant Santa, pimp Santa and his naughty helpers and a protest Santa holding an “Occupy North Pole” sign. A few people dressed asJesus Christ, and someone dressed as theEaster Bunny.    (CLICK THE LINK ABOVE FOR FULL ARTICLE)

Santa’s ready for a break!!  Hope you all got what you wanted this year and hope that you gave just as much.  

If you didn’t get what you wanted, or needed,  GO OUT AND GET IT!

Merry Christmas to all

countdown!

Santacon Fort Lauderdale is almost here!

Here it is folks, the most detailed info SO FAR! 

We start at the Floridian at 6:30PM.  This is a collection spot for Kids In Distress. PLease bring something to donate, they are overwhelmed with kiddy stuff and not enough for the teens they shelter so gift cards are perfect and easy way to make a difference (walmart, target, cvs, publix etc).

Santa will hopefully have his crew all gathered together and begin the Jolly Old March around 7:30 PM  Next stop, Mangos Restaurant & Lounge is on board with drink specials for all those in costume. Then we move on with some random stops and spreading cheer to strangers as we head toward the Giant Christmas tree / “Land of the Frolicking Santas” at Huizenga park, swing around by the water to The Briny RIVERFRONT pub - This is our midway meet up point, we are estimating Santa will arrive around 9:45 or 10PM, meet here if you haven’t been able to catch Santa earlier - moving again toward down town Fort Lauderdale where we hit up more bars including the OTHER Briny Irish Pub on 2nd street / Himmarshee for another drink special!,  Santa is free and encouraged to stop in the many other bars in the downtown area (there are so many so close how can Santa resist?!?!)  Then we end up at our SantaCon finale in Green Room night club for all kinds of great Santa games, costume contests, photobooth, even MORE drink specials etc!
