Every year in December San Francisco’s famed Santacon is held with the intention of celebrating Kris Cringle and all things Christmas – the catch is that Santa is the one who ends up on the naughty list in this gathering.

Started in the mid-1990s Santacon has morphed into an annual celebration of Santa Claus and his naughtier side. Hundreds of Santa-fans dress up as the Jolly old man and perform all manner of debauchery and drunken acts of intoxicated fun in bars and on the city’s corners. So, with all this Santa naughtiness what better place for the Guinness Book of World Records to go to to set a new record involving Santa.

The world record attempt will be fully documented but the merry folk at Guinness on December 10^th this year. They are encouraging as many people as they can to take part in the record setting. All should be dressed up in Santa hats….and nothing else.

That’s right everyone, the world record for the most naked Santa gathered in one place will be attempted.

According to the event's Facebook page, an official location will be announced on December 9th. All holiday-themed nudity enthusiasts are encouraged to participate as long as they obey a few simple rules:

You have to be naked, but CAN and SHOULD be at least wearing a Santa hat. Boots/boot covers and gloves are OK. Otherwise, it's Full Monty or nuthin'

No Elves, No Reindeer, etc. San Francisco LOVE's all Santacon revelers, but Guinness will be strict about the "Santa" requirement.

You'll have to sign some paperwork with your name, address and email and an OK to take your photo, that's part of the Guinness rules too.

Don't worry about breaking the law; public nudity is perfectly legal in San Francisco as long as it's not of an explicitly sexual nature.

Although, due to recently enacted legislation, if any nude Santas have the urge to sit down on a public bench, they're going to have to put down a towel first.

I think I will stay away from San Francisco on the dates mentioned. One naked Santa is one too many for me.
