Santas Gone Wild


A gang of about 50 drunken Santas invaded a New Zealand cinema complex frightening customers, damaging property and swearing. The rampaging Santas were thought to be university students.

Manager Derek Rive said: "As they ran through the complex they wrecked everything they could including the Christmas tree - they bowled everything over. They were just absolute fools, not a bit jolly ."

He said the "hooligans" abused patrons, chanted obscenities, ripped down posters and knocked over cardboard figures advertising films.

Cinema goer Kate Gorman, aged 35 was there to see the movie "Enchanted" with her two children Gabriella, six, and Jackson, seven.
The confused children asked her," Have Santa's helpers gone crazy?" she answered them, "No, they are just idiots and Santa doesn't exist how many times do I have to tell you?."

As the marauding Santas left they triggered a fire alarm, forcing several hundred patrons to evacuate the complex for half an hour.

Security cameras caught the action and police are looking for 50 men with white beards and red velvet suits police are optimistic. .
