There's a lifetime movie called Snowed Inn Christmas where the whole premise is two big city journalists get stuck in Santa Claus, Indiana during the holidays. In the movie the town is a picture perfect Christmas village, but the real Santa Claus is basically fields in the middle of nowhere, plus the Holiday World theme park (which is a legitimate banger if anyone gets the chance to visit). It was filmed in Winnipeg. There are funny details like how their flight gets diverted to the "airport" in Santa Claus even though there isn't an airport that is not a grass strip for like 50 miles at least.
So, you're saying some kind of lunatic actually named a town "Santa Claus"? And nobody slapped him?
