Santas converge downtown

Is there a collective noun for Santas?  A swarm of Santas? A scourge of Santas? Or maybe a sack of Santas?

Nonetheless, a pack of jolly Santa Clauses got together for a photo call in downtown Guadalajara just before the ‘Big Day,’ no doubt unnerving  many a small child brought up to believe that there is only one rotund, white-beaded man in a red coat who comes down the chimney once a year to leave presents.  Many of the licensed Santas say they will stay in the city center until Three Kings Day to keep the holidays spirit alive.
