"Santa Claus" was said twelve times, altogether, by "Spanky", "Spanky's Dad", the burglar and "Stymie", as "Stymie" took "Pete the Pup" there, to hide and keep "The Gang's" dog, hidden from the dog catcher. Edit: it is also uttered at the end of the short by Spanky us a grand total of thirteeen Santa Claus references
Closing line, "I'll come up and see you, sometime.", was one of Spanky's most repeated and popular quotes, while he was an "Our Gang" member & Hal Roach's "Little Rascals".
This is the first of two appearances for Emerson Treacy and Gaye Seabrook as Spanky's parents. They would repeat in Wild Poses.

This short became a fan favorite because it featured Spanky at the height of his precociousness, as well as having the story focus almost exclusively on him.
