Differences such as:
1. There is no danger of a Grinch
stealing your presents from
Bubba Claus. He has a gun rack on his sleigh and a bumper sticker
that
reads: "These toys insured by Smith and Wesson."
2. Instead of milk and cookies, Bubba Claus
prefers that children
leave an RC cola and pork rinds [or a moon pie] on the fireplace.
And
Bubba doesn't smoke a pipe. He dips a little snuff though, so please
have an empty spit can handy.
3. Bubba Claus' sleigh is pulled
by floppy-eared, flyin' coon
dogs instead of reindeer. I made the mistake of loaning him a couple
of my reindeer one time, and Blitzen's head now overlooks
Bubba's fireplace.
4. You won't hear "On Comet, on Cupid,
on Donner and Blitzen ..."
when Bubba Claus arrives. Instead, you'll hear, "On Earnhardt, on
Wallace, on Martin and Labonte. On Rudd, on Jarrett, on Elliott
and
Petty."
5. "Ho, ho, ho!" has been replaced
by "Yee Haw!" And you also are
likely to hear Bubba's elves respond, "I her'd dat!"
6. As required by Southern highway
laws, Bubba Claus' sleigh does
have a Yosemite Sam safety triangle on the back with the words
"Back off" The last I heard it also had other decorations on the
sleigh
back as well. It is a Chevy logo with lights that race through
the letters and
the other is a caricature of me (Santa Claus) going wee wee on the
Tooth Fairy.
7. The usual Christmas movie classics such
as "Miracle on 34th
Street" and "It's a Wonderful Life" will not be shown in your negotiated
viewing area. Instead, you'll see "Boss Hogg Saves Christmas" and
"Smokey and the Bandit IV" featuring Burt Reynolds as Bubba
Claus and dozens of state patrol cars crashing into each other.
8. Bubba Claus doesn't wear a belt.
If I were you, I'd make sure you, the
wife, and the kids turn the other way when he bends over to
put presents
under the tree.
9. And finally, lovely Christmas
songs have been sung about me
like "Rudolph The Red-nosed Reindeer" and Bing Crosby's "Santa Claus
Is Coming to Town." This year songs about Bubba Claus will be played
on all the AM radio stations in the South. Those song title will
be Mark
Chesnutt's "Bubba Claus Shot the Jukebox" and "Grandma Got Run'd
Over by a Reindeer.
Sincerely Yours,
Santa Clause (member of North American
Fairies and Elves Local 209)
