Mick Foley makes donation to local Santa Claus museum, will sign books there
Posted: Oct 3rd 2017 By: Ryan Reynolds
If you get a letter back from Santa Claus this year, it may be because of a gift from a former pro wrestler.
Mick Foley, a World Wrestling Entertainment hall of famer, made a $1,000 donation to the Santa Claus Museum & Village in Spencer County, Indiana, officials with the non-profit said on Monday.
"Elves" at the museum answer letters to Santa every year -- it's been done in the community since 1914 -- but it comes at a significant cost.
Foley, who became famous wrestling under names like Mankind, Dude Love and Cactus Jack, will visit the museum to read and sign his new book, "Saint Mick: My Journey from Hardcore Legend to Santa's Jolly Elf." Foley's visit will take place Tuesday, Nov. 7 at 6 p.m. CST.
Admission to the event is free, but seating is limited.
Foley "truly embodies the spirit of Christmas and we look forward to hosting him," said museum director Emily Thompson.
In a news release, museum officials describe Foley as a "wearer of the red suit."
(Wink, wink.)
The Santa Claus Museum & Village is dedicated to the preservation and interpretation of the history of Santa Claus, Indiana. The facility is located at 69 N. Indiana 245 in Santa Claus, Indiana.
