Santa Claus in September
 

I just had to start a new franchise because my old XBOX got the RROD and in the first 4 weeks of the Season is Santa in the crowd. I know it used to happen for the holiday game, but in the first month of the season. My only other thinking is that in real life its close to Christmas, but that shouldn't effect a franchise game in September

Don't get me wrong, I like how they added that this year, but not in September it ruins the presentation

LOL I had the same thing happen to me today. I started a new chise as the Raiders...and then so far once every single week (currently at Week 11) I have seen Santa.

me too, but it must be just the time of year because I'm in year 3 and I only started seeing him this past weekend

See, it's things like this that get me. It's an indictment on EA's, and Tiburon's, attitude towards the development of this game. Many of their additions are half-finished and flawed.

Is it because it is currently Thanksgiving? I know in the play now mode, it has the Holiday theme, which shows Santa. Kind of funny, but odd.

If they're able to keep the Breast Cancer Awareness stuff to just October in franchise, you'd think they'd be able to keep Santa to just December in Franchise.

The Santa sighting isn't because of live weather... the dates in your chise never change and neither does weather (if it rains week 3 in your chise, it will always rain in week 3 no matter how many times you restart) and live weather doesn't work for franchise anyway... it's also not due to this being the holiday season. You could have seen Santa in August for anyone paying attention.
