Introduction:
Howdy, my name’s Bo. Bo Riddle. I write songs and make cowboy boots. I’d like to tell you a little story. This is a tale about one of your most favorite people in the whole universe. Santa Claus!

It was Christmas Eve and I was at the Bass Pro Outdoor world, doing some last minute Christmas shopping for my little boy and girl, when I saw a very large man, checking off his Christmas list.
Now, it wasn’t very hard to tell he was trying NOT to attract attention. He was dressed like a big ole mossy oak tree. When I say big, I mean BIG. However, for some unknown magical reason, it seemed I was the only one who could see him.
There was just something about him. Maybe it was his grin. That was it! I could tell by the way he was grinning, that he was the king of the Christmas Elves!

Now, I don’t know about you, but I had never seen Santa Claus dressed in Camouflage before, and I didn’t know until now, why he was shopping at Bass Pro. But, I’ll tell you that part a little bit later

Anyway, he thought he was being inconspicuous, but right away I got suspicious. So I said, “Hey, you’re old St. Nicholas, why are you dressed that way?
He said, “This stuff’s the latest craze! Why everybody’s wearing camouflage these days. And it makes me harder to see when I’m putting gifts under the Christmas tree.” Santa looked right at me. “Bo, you look like someone else I know.” He shrugged and said, “Oh, well, I’m sure I’ll think of it later, but now I’ve gotta go, or I’ll be late.” Then he headed for his sleigh.
To some, Santa’s clothes may not mean a thing, as long as he leaves a gift. And I know fashions change, but I never thought Santa would resort to this!
So this year he’s gonna be hard to see, sneaking around the Christmas tree. He’s dressed like that camo ATV, out in my garage. He won’t be wearing his bright red suite with his laced up camo Red Head boots. I guess even Santa Clause wears Camouflage.

Earlier I promised I’d let you in on the secret of why Santa Clause was wearing Camouflage. Well, it’s a whole story in itself, so here goes.
Now, this tale happened right at the top of the world. Do you know where that is? The North Pole, Santa’s home sweet home!
