A group of ice skaters (including one Olympian) and hockey players are dressed up as colorful yetis for British retailer Argos' new holiday campaign.
Promoting Argos' Fast Track Delivery and Fast Track Collection services, these Christmas yetis speed through narrow, snowy streets and drop off Christmas gifts to the tune of "What's This?" from The Nightmare Before Christmas. Seems like kind of a random music choice, but it's not like there's a wealth of yeti-themed holiday songs to pick from, so I gave it a pass.
As for why these characters are yetis in the first place, some regional folklore maintains that yetis are supernaturally fast for their size, making them solid candidates for delivery/collection services.
