It's a KFC Christmas

An American blogger:
When I first came to Japan, I was told that Kentucky Fried Chicken, or simply ‘Kentucky’ as it’s known in Japan, is a Christmas tradition. I was told that people flock to KFC for their annual Christmas Eve dinner. I didn’t really take it seriously until I saw people lining up for three blocks one Christmas Eve, just to get their dose of chicken!
Colonel Sanders looks like Santa Claus.

(And in non-Christmas news, there's some kind of curse on the Hanshin Tigers baseball team. Kind of like the Cubs' one I guess.)

The Welsh remind us the traditional Christmas dinner was not turkey.

Hmm, how about this--Japanese commercials of Christmas past.
