Zanta Says Merry Christmas
I nominate Zanta for 2006 word of the year. He should have been in the running anyway, but now that someone plastered his image on this billboard across from the Gladstone (Queen and Gladstone), I think he's sealed the deal.
I can't recall the last time a local figure has reached such cult-status in this city. Heck, even the stuffy Globe and Mail printed an article on Zanta this weekend.

lol. Wow.
Wasn't he banned from downtown?
Well, he's found a new way in!
Tremendous!!!
Crazy stuff. Recently I saw him get on the bus without paying a fare, spent a couple of minutes looking through the discarded transfers on the floor. Of course he didn't find anything of use, so he got off without a fuss.
Awesome!!!! Nice one, fauxreel.
What a great hack. This one is SO much better than the bush/kanye one.
Aweeeessommmme. Take THAT, Wikipedia ;)
oh god, please no :(
stupid zanta.
Zanta really does evoke the "yes yes yes" and "no no no" in everyone eh?
I want to hire him as my personal trainer
When I drove by today, Zanta was across the street bragging to a TTC driver about the billboard. He was fully clothed though (+ the Zanta hat).
Fully clothed? On Christmas?! Zanta is letting things slide.
Yeah, was a little weird.
Haha ~^_^~ thats so amazing ... so "Toronto" flare ~^_^~
OMG... ALL THE POWER TO HIM WHEN HE ACTUALLY GETS PAID FOR THIS SHIT! Stop replying with "yesyesyes" and reply with a loonie! Better yet a toonie, cause he's twice the loonie that most of us are!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!! MINUS the "yesyesyes"
