Slog - Comments on Santa: Drunk and at Liberty http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/12/santa_drunk_and_at_liberty Santa was at Liberty on 15th last night, enjoying the hell out of himself. The barman said Santa had killed the keg of Liberty Ale and moved on to pints of Stella. ("I don't know what the reindeer are drinking," the barman said.) The flask lodged between Santa's substantial belly and for-decorative-purposes-only belt was empty. "I drank it already," he said. About the belly: "That's real," he said with pride. "That's a lot of beer." Santa doesn't like gin. "When Santa drinks gin," he said, "he tastes it for three days." Santa was unconcerned that his suit made him look...

I admit, I contributed by buying him a Liberty Ale, and the foxy Mrs. a Guinness.
He'll be drunk again tonight at The Tasting Room in Post Alley. Go celebrate the alcoholidays!

Santa is not young any longer, and Christmas Eve takes a lot out of him. So, these conditioning romps such as the one at Liberty last night are really a necessity.

You should have seen him during the Reagan years - he was drinking straight Bourbon then due his clinical depression, and was giving out a lot of coal at the White House. So, a little beer hurts no one.

It's for kids (Pop Tots is a kids store), but anyone can come and bring their pet or just get a picture of themselves and the King. Bring your own camera, there'll be cupcakes from Cupcake Royale. There's a cool tatoo parlor next door if you want to hit it first. Pop Tots, 6405 Roosevelt Ave., Ravenna, 206-522-4322, www.poptots.net.
