Drunken Santas Cause Melbourne Traffic Jam

Tis the season to be jolly especially for Qantas employees:

A GROUP of Santas has stopped traffic in Melbourne.

Police intercepted a car carrying the yuletide revellers at about 9.30pm in Carlton on Friday night and vowed to take action against the driver.

Up to 400 people attended a Santa-themed pub crawl including a large contingent of Qantas workers, the Herald Sun reported.

A flight attendant on the booze-up, who asked not to be named, said Qantas workers from Perth, Sydney and Brisbane flew into town for the annual soiree which has been running 14 years.

She branded the officers who stopped the bar hopping group at the corner of Elgin and Lygon Streets “fun police”.

“The car was going at about 5km/hr, it’s not as if we were going to hurt anyone,” she said.  [Herald-Sun]
