Q: Okay, i asked this question earlier, and no one understood the question... HOW LONG has santa been saying Ho Ho Ho? does anyone know when the HO HO HO all started?
A: The current concept of Santa Claus with the red suit dates back about 150 years and was popularized in the famous poem "Twas the Night before Christmas." St. Nicholas, the inspiration for Santa, was a real life bishop who gave gifts such as oranges at Christmas. He lived in Asia Minor (now Turkey) several hundred years ago. Father Christmas, similar to Santa, has been around in European countries probably for several hundred years. He has a white beard and Santa like hat but in paintings I've seen is a little slimmer.
