Kentucky Fried Christmas








In Japan they call Colonel Sanders, "Kentucky Ogisan". Translated: "Kentucky Grandpa".
During the Christmas season they dress up Kentucky Ogisan like Santa Clause. Of course if you have ever been to Japan you would understand their confusion with Western things. Only about 1% of the population is Christian so they celebrate Christmas just like it was another one of their many festivals. Another fact about Japan: They love festivals which leads me to believe their sister city in the U.S. is probably San Francisco.

Ohhh the inhumanity of it all. I will never see The Colonel the same way again. Now kids are going to think Santa smells of chicken grease.
