During the Northland News Center's broadcast of Duluth's frigid Christmas City of the North parade last Friday night, TV anchors wore their winter coats.
Thing is, they didn't actually need them. Look closely at the screengrab at the top of this post and you'll notice they were just pretending to be outside from the warm comfort of the NBC affiliate's studio.

It could be, like, taunting.

(11,843 posts)WDSM (now KBJR) had their studio on Superior Street, so the parade was always on channel 6. They have done the parade every year, except the first one that I could have seen, in 1963. That was canceled after JFK was killed.
What amazes me is that they could stand to have winter coats on in the studio. Seems that would get unbearably hot very quickly. Well, that and the fact that they thought anyone would buy the fake.

It's funny Duluth tried to fake it. We moved near Duluth (~75 miles) 15 years ago from the TC and the local news is kinda strange compared to the Cities.
