If you've ever spent any time near a mall Santa Claus, you know at least 50% of small children who are plopped on the lap of a white-bearded, red-clad stranger will immediately burst into tears. But a St. Nick stand-in in Portland, OR, might have found the solution — donning a more familiar chunky sweater and a man bun.
