Megan finds out that no matter if it’s Los Angeles or Indianapolis, Santa is still going to shake you down and get what’s his. Gone are the days of taking your kids to the mall for a free picture with the cigarette scented Santa because the big man has bills to pay too, apparently. The first family of reality television, Jack Osbourne, managed to convince his non-believing oldest daughter to join her sisters in a holiday photo with Ol’ Saint Nick and also discusses what it’s like for his girls to have a real life, iconic, Rock-N-Roll legend as a grandfather. We’d all probably prefer Santa Ozzy, but we’re stuck doling out a hundred bucks to have our crying kids take a pic with the jolly ol’ town drunk. Happy Holidays, Buttheads!
