Santa Claus exited the first helicopter, a deep blue Alabama State Trooper machine, holding a big red bag and ambled across the windy helipad.
That was the first of 12 choppers from 9 agencies dropping off toys at the old Children's hospital helipad in a staged demonstration, months in the making, for the children across the way in the new Children's of Alabama hospital.
"We can't see them, but they can see us" said Children's CEO Mike Warren at the helipad. "This is something we can do to take their minds off their troubles."
Warren said there were 256 children in the hospital today and estimated about 100 -- and an equal number of parents -- were watching the show from the windows.
