What is it all coming to when the Amalgamated Order of Real Bearded Santas, representing 700 of the nation’s favorite fat man, meet to discuss the encroaching economic crisis? No more rented reindeer for the city holiday festival? Rocky and Bullwinkle, too, are getting the boot in Gatlinburg, Tennessee because it costs too much to fill them with hot air for the holidays.
Maybe save on the helium and drive up Pennsylvania Ave. for a refill?
As the National Secretary for the FRATERNAL Order of Real-Bearded Santas, I’ve spoken with HUNDREDS of Santas since this story began to snowball– and it seems to be only the few remaining AORBS members who are experiencing significant declines in their business this year… considering the disintegration of that once-noble fraternity over the past year due to criminal mismanagement, I think the reluctance of the public to do business with their members is simply a case of chickens coming home to roost. FORBS members are experiencing their best seasons EVER!!!
