I have a great Secret Santa story. In my office, there was a Secret Santa event. One person got their boss as the recipient. They knew the boss was really into golf. So they got a custom - made golf ball with the boss's face printed on it. When the boss opened it, he was so surprised and amused at the same time. He actually took it to the golf course later. Another story is about a family Secret Santa. A young boy got his grandma. He gave her a book of old - fashioned jokes. Grandma spent the whole evening reading the jokes out loud and everyone was in stitches. Also, at a school Secret Santa, a student got their teacher. They gave the teacher a pair of socks with little apples on them (as a nod to the teacher - student relationship). The teacher thought it was really cute and funny.
Here's a Secret Santa story that always makes me laugh. A group of friends were doing Secret Santa. One friend, who was known for being a bit of a prankster, got a very proper and serious friend. He decided to give her a box full of gag gifts. There were fake mustaches, a whoopee cushion, and a pair of googly - eyed glasses. When she opened it, she was initially shocked but then started laughing uncontrollably. In another instance, a Secret Santa got someone who was obsessed with superheroes. They gave them a cape that was made out of a really shiny and cheap material. It looked so ridiculous but the recipient absolutely loved it and wore it around the party all night. There was also a Secret Santa who gave their friend a collection of really cheesy '80s workout videos. The friend hadn't expected it at all and it became a great source of entertainment for the whole group.
Once, a little girl asked the mall Santa for a pony. When Santa said it might be a bit difficult, she then pulled out a long list of very specific pony requirements, like it had to be pink with a purple mane. Santa was so flabbergasted he just laughed.
The element of surprise often makes Secret Santa stories funny. For example, when someone gets a gift that is completely unexpected, like a huge inflatable dinosaur when they least expect it. It catches them off guard and makes for a hilarious moment.
Sure. One funny Santa story is that Santa once got his reindeer mixed up and ended up at the wrong chimney. He was supposed to go to a little girl's house but instead landed at an old man's place. The old man was so shocked to see Santa that he thought he was hallucinating.
One of the funniest Secret Santa stories I heard was when a guy got a box of really old VHS tapes. He thought it was a joke at first, but then he found out that his Secret Santa knew he was a huge fan of classic movies and those tapes had some really rare and out - of - print movies. He was over the moon.
Sure. There was a Secret Santa event at a school. A little boy, who didn't have many friends, got the name of the most popular boy in class. He made him a friendship bracelet. The popular boy was so moved that he put it on right away and from that day on, they became good friends. It was really heartwarming to see how a simple Secret Santa gift could change a relationship.
A memorable Secret Santa story involved a small community center. An elderly man was the Secret Santa for a young boy. The man knew the boy was saving up for a skateboard. He hand - made a skateboard for the boy. He painted it with the boy's favorite colors and added some cool stickers. When the boy received it, he was over the moon. It was a very special gift because it had so much love and effort put into it.
A Santa helper once tried to dress up as an elf but got the costume all wrong. He put the hat on his feet and the shoes on his head. When he walked into the workshop, all the other helpers burst out laughing. He was so embarrassed, but it made for a really funny moment that the helpers still talk about years later.
Once Santa got his sleigh stuck in a chimney. His reindeer were pulling so hard that his hat flew off and landed right in a plate of cookies that a child had left out for him. He finally managed to get unstuck, but he had cookie crumbs all over his beard.
Sure. One of the funniest was when a Secret Santa gave a person a singing fish plaque. You know, the kind that moves its mouth and sings when you press a button. The recipient was completely bewildered but couldn't stop laughing. Another was a Secret Santa who gave a box of mismatched socks, each with a different crazy pattern like unicorns and tacos. And once, someone got a set of inflatable sumo wrestler suits as a Secret Santa gift. They ended up having a sumo wrestling match right in the living room.
Some of the worst Secret Santa stories include when the gift was a half - eaten box of chocolates. It was so unhygienic and disrespectful. There was also a situation where the Secret Santa got the wrong person's name and gave the gift to the wrong recipient. The actual recipient was left without a gift. And then there was a case where the Secret Santa was so late in giving the gift that the whole Secret Santa event had lost its charm. It was like an afterthought and not a part of the fun celebration it was supposed to be.
