I was a skeptical kid. A fat man making his way down every single chimney in the country in one night? No way. Never really bought into it.

Rational. But what if not all Santas are fat? And what if there are in fact many of them? Gets a whole lot more plausible.

Umm, yeah, that would be my man, Santa Jesse, not me so much. If you were searching, Triceratops Santa was me. I felt like I needed to up the ante, er weird the ante this year. One parent commented, "That's the real OG Santa."
