`Naked Elves' Spreading Holiday Cheer
Ya gotta love the AP wire....

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) -- The Naked Elves are Alabama's newest holiday rage.

What began as a practical joke has evolved into an odd yuletide tradition: Grown men wearing red boxer shorts, Santa hats and lighted suspenders as they travel around Birmingham singing off-key carols.

Garnering fans in two counties, the Naked Elves have entertained at nearly 30 apartments, restaurants and homes with their slightly warped version of Christmas cheer.

Dozens of families got a visit from the men leading up to Christmas.

"It's so much fun to see their faces, especially when they don't know we are coming," said David Bryar, the head elf.
