On Christmas Eve in Japan, people wait for hours lined up outside their local KFC to buy a bucket of chicken. At the root of this practice is thought to be, perhaps, the similarity between Colonel Sanders and Santa Claus.  the Colonel has also become an extremely popular character in Japanese anime, manga, and haiku... People speak of his the day Colonel Sanders, God. |
