Who does Santa con for charity?
Haha, my double innuendo.
But seriously, I've done Santa con, as a spectator, for a decade and never once did I think to myself "this is a charitable event". It's a place for 20 thousand Santa cosplayers to go dressed in 10 thousand Santa cosplay suits, and swill bear until the hohoho's are really hohoho-ing.
One of the only things I truly enjoy going to the city for. So many naked Santas.
That's a different con.
