LETTER: Reasons why Comet should be most famous reindeer of all

1. Comet sounds way cooler than Rudolph.

2. A comet can fly up to 43.496 miles per second! This could TOTALLY save Santa a lot of travel time, PLUS cut down the number of bathroom stops, because you KNOW Santa can’t hold in all those glasses of milk and cookies for very long. Especially considering he gets them every single stop.

3. With Comet leading the way, kids would not have to stay up nearly as late waiting for Santa to FINALLY make it to their house.

4. Why is Rudolph so famous anyway? Because he has a red nose? All you have to do to get your own nose red is stand outside in the cold for a few minutes. Seriously Rudolph? That’s the best you could come up with? —Keira Niemeyer, age 14, Lakeside
