Rick Lee James riffs on the reindeers Santa left out of the story. Leon got hit by a car, Bob's mounted on a hunter's wall, Rufus became sausage after biting Santa, and Clancy was too drunk to fly. A dark comedy about the ones nobody remembers.
Chapters
Hey, Rick Lee James here with an old Christmas favorite that I wrote several years ago. We hear about all the other reindeer like Rudolph and Dasher and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen and how famous they are, but what about all those unsung reindeers that we never get to hear their story? Well, this is my tribute to them. You know Dasher and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen, but do you recall the least famous reindeer of all? Leon the cross-eyed reindeer got hit by a moving car. The impact didn't kill him, but it sure did leave a scar. Then there was Bob the 8-point, biggest reindeer in town. Rack you ever saw. That is why now he's hanging on a famous hunter's wall. Rufus was a rabid deer. He bit Santa's arm. That bought him a one-way trip to the reindeer sausage farm. Clancy the drunken reindeer liked to drink before he'd fly. And he pulled the sleigh that one year. Santa got a DUI. That's a deer under the influence. Agent 29 the reindeer now works for the FBI. I could tell you his real name, but then you all would have to die. Cletus loved the reindeer games since he was a boy. But he was disqualified because he took steroids. These are the unknown reindeer Santa doesn't want us to see. Rudolph is rich and famous, but they live in obscurity. Oh, they live in obscurity. Happy Advent, Merry Christmas, and a very jolly epiphany to all of you.
