WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) -- A group of 40 people dressed in Santa Claus outfits, many of them drunk, went on a rampage through Auckland, New Zealand's largest city, robbing stores, assaulting security guards and urinating from highway overpasses, police said Sunday.

Hey, you can't make toys for free anymore!
Next, Santa will be billing the children for their toys.

All I could think of when I read this is "they should never give a liscence to a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves."

I keep thinking of Al Yankovich's "The night Santa went crazy" without so much artillery.

Michael Jackson makes me think of Thriller, which makes me think of http://www.zombieclaus.com/ , which makes me think of http://santarchy.com/ , which starred Kevin Bacon.

Why do I suddenly have an image of the Lord of the Rings film with Santas rather than Orks? That is actually rather scary!

Jesus, are you guys that outta the loop? Santarchy (http://santarchy.com/) (the "Red Tide") has been going on annually, worldwide for the last 12 years. It's been written about in Fugitives and Refugees by Chuck Palahniuk (of Fight Club fame), and is supposedly one of the best times you'll have all year if you can organize a group in your area.

They scared off the sheep with the suits and took out their frustration on others.
