(Reall Crappy) Christmas Partay Pictures
(Jeez, kids, be careful of his knee!)
Fiorentina had their Christmas party, which basically means everyone -- from the smallest babies to the the oldest Jorgy -- puts on their club gear, and goes and sits in a big room together. Once upon a time, we got good pictures of this, but those days sadly appear to be long gone.

Establishing shot.
Basically, it appears to be chaos.
Chaos with little, tiny kids front and center -- that's always a good idea.
It looks like before (after?) everyone gets their own walk of honor, the whole team parade down the runway.
Is that Gambit? It looks sort of like his blurry hair. My first thought was Da Costa, but that's not possible.
They all got ... pieces of paper for the holidays. Hoorah!
Kids: *shriek like Gila is Beyonce*
Gila: *relents and lets them touch him*
(Gobbi's walk through the forest of kids was too crazy to photograph.)
Daw.
Jorgy seriously rocks that ridiculous shirt ADV makes them wear, doesn't he? Sometimes, it's good to look like a hedgehog.
Dario, meanwhile, continues to look surprisingly good in pretty much everything.
(The kids find LDS a little scary.)
... And they're still not sure who Santana is. SIGH.
They know Monty, though, they've been touching his legs at Christmas for years!
Mutu is SO pleased with himself about being mobbed by children. (It has been a while since his broken ass was cheered for anything, I guess.)
No one wants to touch the Frenchie, they just stare at him in awestruck silence.
Kids: *sing an adoring song about Vargas and his wondrous hair*
Cesare is such a rockstar -- look at all those cameraphones.
Yeah, they love him.
There were all those rumors that no Della Valles would turn up for the event.
But, please. As if DDV would pass up the chance to sit in the Christmas Throne! (Plus, he had to yell at the press after.)
And last but not least, the real king.
Even the kids love the Panda! Fiorentina babies not only strip from an early age, but are also very smart.
(He lets DDV sit in the throne cos it makes him feel good, but everyone knows it's really Corvino's.)
I don't know who this kid is, but he's awesome.
And, from the look of things, was the night's undisputed star -- he's got the captain eating out of his hand and everything! Respect, kid.
The old dude's charisma was slightly less than that of the kid, but he got a kit, so it's all good.
Anyone who's got more, please drop them in the comments! I'll trying add any that go up later at the usual places.
