In the words of the videographer who took this You Tube footage:
"SantaCon (aka Santarchy, aka The Red Menace) is an annual worldwide Santa Claus convention occurring in many cities across the globe. People dress as Santa, other associated characters, and variations on the theme, and embark on a massive all-day pub-crawl around the city. Christmas - Jesus - Shopping + Halloween + Pub Crawl + Frat Party + Girls Gone Wild = SantaCon."

SantaCon is an international gathering of Santas that is half spectacle, half pub crawl.
For the second year running, the Capital City of St. Paul, Minnesota is hosting a SantaCon event in the historic district of Lowertown! On December 19th, will you be ready?
