sarsippius Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Santa fired for telling 3-year-old ‘Maple Leafs suck’Rick Chandler Dec 7, 2012, 5:36 PM EST The NHL lockout has been emotionally grinding for many hockey fans, and Santa is no exception. It happened at a Christmas Market in Toronto, where Santa Claus was greeting the kiddies. This particular Santa, however, showed up a half-an-hour late to the gig, according to the Toronto Sun, and then began insulting people.He told one kid wearing a plaid shirt that he looked like Paul Bunyan, and then noticed that the child was wearing a Totonto Maple League tuque. The boy’s mom picks up the story:“Then he said, ‘Oh, you’re wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs tuque, you shouldn’t be wearing that, they suck.’ At that point, I took my son and told him we should go, Santa isn’t being very good today.”Trent said her son was inconsolable and cried all the way home to Mississauga.“He wanted to know who Paul Bunyan was? He wanted to know why Santa said the Toronto Maple Leafs suck,” Trent told the Sun Thursday. “I told him Santa was having a bad day. I can’t really tell him Santa’s a jerk.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammer2 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 @blesser09 You would think even at this young age, the kid would be used to it! A rough life that youngster will have! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
