Mayor’s bizarre family Christmas photo goes viral
Right about now, you're probably starting to receive Christmas cards from friends and family.
It's pretty safe to assume that most of them are adorned with candid shots of smiling faces, and some even have a picture of the newest addition to the family: a kid or man's best friend.
Well a Christmas card from the mayor of Puerto Rico's capital San Juan just earned him a spot on the famous blog 'Awkward family photos'.
The family Christmas card from Mayor Jorge Santini is not what you'd call an average holiday greeting. Santini and his family are pictured smiling standing behind a stuffed and mounted jaguar gripping a terrified antelope by the throat.
But the strange pictures don't stop there. There are a series of photos featuring the family and their friends from nature: the Santini family with a bear and a large flying bird and an Antarctic scene with a penguin staring intently at Santini's son.
It didn't take long for the main picture to go viral, with people sharing the picture on Facebook more than 15,000 times.
Some people suspect that the photos are meant to send a message to his political rivals, but Santini says the photos were taken to promote the San Juan Wildlife Museum.
On social media, it has people tweeting a triple response, "wrong, wrong, wrong," "yes, yes, yes," and "weird, weird, weird."
Perhaps even more cryptic is the caption that reads, "That you may illuminate your dream this Christmas" in Spanish. Exactly what kind of dreams they are we'll leave to your imagination.
