We're Asking Santa To Help This Person Get Over This Memory

Eye_Doc_Photog 637 points · 2 days ago When I was 5 years old (49 years ago) I asked a Santa in JC Penny's at the time for a real lawn mower, the kind that my dad uses. They had me hold a microphone up to my mouth. My answer (along with every other kid I presume) was broadcast throughout the whole store. I can still hear the laughter from the adults.

Out Of All Of The Things To Ask For…

blue4t 16.3k points · 3 days ago I know the weirdest thing I asked for was a pen that could write like a pen, pencil, marker, and crayon. I'd never seen one but was sure Santa could make it.

This Little Genius

The_Calico_Jack 22.5k points · 2 days ago O Awards from Chief_Steward My uncle was a Santa and he told me that one year a kid asked for a coffee maker because he wanted to start his own Starbucks coffee stand instead of a lemonade stand. Apparently business was not very good as a lemonade stand but he noticed a lot of adults drink coffee, so he'd make coffee. That kid is probably a millionaire now.

It's Better To Ask For Double

rothmaniac 1.9k points · 2 days ago Not the weirdest, but my favorite thing I have heard a kid ask for. At my daughters preschool, there was a Santa. Kids were asking for the usual things, like toys and unicorns. One little girl goes up. You can tell she is thinking really hard. She asks for 2 rolls of tape. Dream big kid!

Please Stop Showing Kids The Godfather

Navy-H 5.3k points · 3 days ago Not a mall Santa but once my sister asked Santa if she could have a horses head and an ice cream cone. She explained that she was gonna paint the ice cream cone the colour of the horse, stick it on, mount the horses head to the wall and tell her friends she killed a unicorn. She doesn't remember.

I Respect This Child's Choice

Suckan-elf 1.2k points · 3 days ago Not technically a "mall" Santa but, My neighbour was a Santa for a community brunch years ago and a little girl asked for a cheeseburger. Not that odd on it's own I suppose but, an odd request for the holiday and from such an important and magically being.

This Had To Have Been The McCallister Family

Ralsei_Loverpp 134 points · 2 days ago Well, when I was 9-10 my siblings and I all individually told Santa we wanted car insurance and a house. We didn't collaborate and agreed to tell Santa the same thing, and were surprised when after the meet, Santa got up and told us this was the first time it's happened to him and wanted to take a group photo with us.

Goop Approved

pingassama 61 points · 2 days ago I'm not the Santa but I happened to be in the area when this happened. A kid asked for 5 gallons of maple syrup. When the Santa asked him why, his response was that he liked to bathe in it and his bathtub could hold 5 gallons of water.
