Quote of the Day

Some NYC cop gave a guy dressed as Santa a ticket for parking illegally. Reports as to whether his cries of “Ho Ho Ho” got him another ticket for solicitation are as yet unconfirmed.

Chip Cafiero says he’ll fight the $115 ticket he received in Brooklyn on Black Friday when he was dressed as Santa.

The 60-year-old retired schoolteacher was riding a horse-drawn carriage and handing out toys and candy canes. An SUV carrying the toys and protecting the horse from traffic was double parked next to him.

Santa says he yelled “Ho! Ho! Ho!” to get the traffic agent’s attention because the SUV wasn’t blocking traffic. But in his words, “This grinch just went ahead and fined me.”
