Santacon 2008: New York Times

This is by far one of the best firsthand accounts of what Santacon actually is that I have ever seen. I implore everybody to check out this photo essay by Bill Cunningham from the New York Times. He does an amazing job summing up what it is like to walk down the street and see thousands of Santas walking by.

If you look carefully, it is towards the beginning, Brooke and I are actually in one of the shots while walking past Madison Square Garden walking to the post office. You can tell by her pajama bottoms.

Now I just need to figure out what type of Santa I am going to be next year. I will be taking ideas for the next 10 months. I need a solid original idea that I could walk around in all day. Preferably something I could sit down and move around in easily. Also, both of these pictures are from Brooke’s camera. You can find these pictures here.
