The year after that Scott Beale of Laughing Squid flew to Portland and shot a full-on mockumentary of the 1996 event which will be presented by John Law on December 19th in San Francisco at the 1996 Portland Santacon 10th Anniversary Party.

This one features the famous scene where we hung Santa Melmoth from a streetlight on Market Street. […]
