Little girl mistakes Walmart shopper for Santa and his reaction is ideal

The man had a long white beard and was wearing red, so it was an easy mistake to make at this time of year.

T’was the night before Christmas and Santa Claus was doing some last-minute shopping in a U.S. department store – and he was “cornered” by a little girl.

When she tells him she’s going to leave out some cookies for him, he asks: “Can I eat them all?”

Without hesitation, the shopper, Roger Larck, played along and asked her if she was all set for Christmas.

At the end of their chat, Sophie waves and says thank you, while “Santa” wishes her a Merry Christmas.

Sophie Jo ran into “Santa” at Walmart in Hurricane.

The little girl then shows the man her hands, to which he replies: ‘Wow, haven’t you got pretty nails’.

Sophie’s father, Zanesville-native Robert Riley, did the good deed of uploading a footage of this conversation on his Facebook wall, which soon went viral and is now sitting on 128,045 views.
