Naughty gay Santa invades Heretic’s bear den

Add this share

You can always count on a few things in gay Atlanta. Holidays get a gay twist, Waffle House is swamped at 3 a.m., and when Bear Invasion hits Heretic, dancing queens pack themselves wall to wall.

All three of those sure bets proved true again on Friday. DJ Doug Jackson took the wheel on the latest iteration of the hunky, hairy party. The man beasts sweated it out among naughty Santas (above), pre-party beats by Atlanta’s own Sean Mac, and the Atlanta Bucks gay rugby squad.

Bear Invasion always does well. Notch another one in its Heretic bedpost alongside the other events in the series. It got hot in September, steamy in June, and on fire last winter.
