He was hung by his power cable. He was deflated. His friends were tortured.They lost their lights and their blowers. The Slasher wanted to know where Santa’s Village is. None of them talked. They even refused to tell him where the North Pole is! I arrived on the scene and scared the Slasher away. Poor Santa, not a breath of air left in his body. Windsor, Ontario

Sad in a way. But patrons in the food court enjoyed ( although many just ate and talked loud to overpower the Devonshire Mall choir in Windsor
