Picture: This lad in Port Laoise went a bit too far with his Santa impersonation

It's definitely going to be a white Christmas for this guy anyway

It’s definitely going to be a white Christmas for this guy anyway

We’re not sure exactly what the lad concerned here was thinking, and at the time it probably seemed like a great idea, but he went a little too far when he dyed his hair and beard white. We have it on good authority that he had a tray of Jaeger in hand and twelve reindeer parked outside Coppers for the night.

While this is a good look for the man who lives in the North Pole, we’re not so sure it’s going to win him any style awards on the streets of Port Laoise. Still, he’s got a few more days left to get a gig as a Santa at a shopping centre and make some of the cash he spent on dye back, so it’s not all bad news.
