St Nick - clicky poll
I already asked this on MM but thought I'd put it here too.
Do you know of St. Nick? I grew up in Wisconsin (Milwaukee) and we celebrated St Nick every year - the night of Dec. 5th and when I moved out to Virginia realized that none of my co workers or friend out here knew of St. Nick

Re: St Nick - clicky poll
I'm from Europe so probably have a different take on it but in some countries (Holland and Germany etc I think) they get presents and all that on 6 Dec and not on 25th. I think they are put in clogs in Holland. When I was a child in England we did some weird Kris kringle thing on 6 Dec at brownies just for fun but our main Christmas is the same is in the USA, 25th Dec. I always thought St Nic=Father Christmas=Santa and that he just comes on different days depending on what you believe.
The Spanish go one step further and dont get their gifts until 6 Jan (the 3 wise men).

My mom's family is from Germany and we always celebrated St. Nicholas Day on 12/6. We put our shoes out in the hallway with our letter to Santa inside.
If we were good we got small presents and candy in our shoes from Santa when we woke the next morning. If we had been bad there was coal or nothing at all and that meant we needed to clean up our act or Santa wouldn't bring us any presents on Christmas!
