SUMMARY:Virginia Beach SantaCon 2012
DESCRIPTION:1. Santa does not make children cry. Really, if you see ki
 ds, don't do anything to freak them out. Give them a nice smile and po
 ssibly a gift of some kind (toys, candy etc). Parents and tourists are
  a different matter altogether - adjust your behavior based on their a
 ttitude.  2. Santa dresses for all occasions. It's December. Smart san
 tas wear multiple costume layers. Dress to maximize merriment whether 
 singing Christmas carols in the snow, or swinging from a stripper pole
  in a hot nightclub.  3. Santa doesn't whine! We will be outside a lot
  and commuting mainly on foot - bring enough \"snacks\" to keep your p
 ie-hole filled until we get indoors.  4. Bring gifts: NAUGHTY gifts to
  give grown ups; NICE stuff to give kids. Throwing coal at people is d
 iscouraged no matter who they are. YES THAT INCLUDES POLITICIANS. But 
 giving out coal might actually be appreciated.  5. Watching santa get 
 drunk and rowdy is fun. Babysitting santa while he vomits in an alley 
 is not. Don't be that santa.  6. Make sure you always pay for your bee
 r and tip the bar staff. We want to be able to do this again so be pol
 ite and cultivate the goodwill of the local community.  7. Please pay 
 for your drinks as soon as you get them. Santas get tired of waiting o
 n other santas to clear their tab before being able to move on. This e
 ntire adventure should be cash only.  8. \"No santa's left behind!\" D
 on't think only of yourself - Santa is not inconsiderate of his fellow
  santas like that. Pick a few people you know and keep an eye out for 
 them when it's time to move to the next location. If you don't see the
 m, speak up so other santas know to wait a moment. Every santa should 
 have at least 2-3 other santas they look out for and 2-3 that look out
  for them in turn.  9. Stay with the group. It's not just a case of \"
 the more, the merrier\" - Santa is safer with large numbers of fellow 
 santas and what one santa can't achieve (or get away with) is a possib
 ility for 50 or more!  10. Dress up! You don't have to dress exactly l
 ike Santa. In fact, unusual interpretations of Santa-ness are much app
 reciated, both by those we bring joy to - as well as your fellow santa
 s: elves, reindeer themes etc. are fine as well!  11. Please remember 
 that this is all about having fun. Most santas like to take their fun 
 with a little alcohol which is fine. What is not fine, however, is get
 ting completely sh#t-faced to the point that santas end up being abusi
 ve or violent. Remember that there is no \"bail fund\" for incarcerate
 d santas and if you cross the line you'll be on your own.  12. Santa d
 oesn't drink & drive and neither should you. If you're going to drink 
 you must make sure that you can get safely home without driving yourse
 lf. Check public transport, carpool with a designated sober driver, ma
 ke arrangements to sleep over at someone's place etc. Organizers somet
 imes try to coordinate transportation to get santas safely home. Check
  the message boards and groups for your local SantaCon to find out if 
 this is being done in your area.  13. You MUST address everyone as \"S
 anta.\"  14. You SHOULD \"ho-ho-ho\" like Santa.  15. You OUGHT to giv
 e out gifts like Santa.  16. You MIGHT want to drink like Santa  17. R
 ead these guidelines one more time.  18. If you have reached this rule
 , it means you didn't get locked into a loop reading the guidelines ov
 er and over again as per the previous rule. You are therefore intellig
 ent enough to take part in SantaCon!  19. Have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!
