Speedo Santas Pop Up Around the World

Despite freezing temperatures and the occasional icy drizzle, since 2000 Bostonians have been treated to the annual vision of Santas in speedos running through town. The first year it was five guys and a boombox, and this year they had thousands -- raising money for Cradles to Crayons, a local charity. But they aren't the only scantily-clad Santas!
