Bob Costas, of network TV fame, was a huge fan of the first Christmas
and has stated publicly, "I'd give my right arm, my left
nut, and some more various appendages just for a chance to put
on the actual John Randle suit." The studio, reportedly,
wants nothing to do with Costas and has made every attempt to
sever all ties with him, stating, "Mr. Costas' wager is not
only macabre but also absurd. We at the studio will see to it
that that rotten sleaze and his halitosis-polluted face will never
in this century inhabit the inside of a John Randle costume. If
he wants to go buy the replica at Rite Aid he should feel free."
