Coca Cola didn't make Santa Claus what he is today. They only commercialized him. The one to blame is Thomas Nast! He created the jolly man with his north pole workshop with elves!

Don't blame the beverage companies!

That's great! I can just picture, "A 250-pound Santa will be pinned to the back of his sleigh by 4,375,015 pounds of force (after we deduct his weight)."

That's great! Thanks for posting, ponrauil!

in fact, they did. it was coca-cola that made his outfit red to coincide with their advertising. before this time, he was always thought of as dressing in green. coca-cola 1-0 consumers.
