At a Christmas event at a mall in Texas, Santa tried to deliver joy and good tidings to the gathered well-wishers by rappelling down the side of the building. Hey, there was no chimney, after all!

Where are your flying reindeer when you need them, fat man? This is what you get for showing up before Thanksgiving. [Spulch]
