They hug each other, but their hug is interrupted by another snowman who says it's cold up on the mountain.
  • The Snowman is the one-man project of Andrew Hoffman. The skit's premise is simple. The camera focus' on the page of a children's story book of the same name while Hoffman narrates over it. Of course, he does not read the actually text but rather creates an alternate story based on the pictures. He also modifys a few pictures with pen to add effect. The plot follows a boy who's snowman magically comes to life and takes him on a trip through the night. Little does the boy know, the snowman is actually a psychopath who enjoys killing animals along the way. The skit was premiered at CFF to very high praise. After a long abscenese, it was repremiered at FFF 2007 to equal praise.

Defeated and melting, the Snowman spends the rest of the night on the back porch. He also appears in the annual carol sing during "Caroling, Caroling".
  • The plot is simple: a young boy awakens on Christmas Eve (or possibly New Year's Eve, the dialog free nature makes it hard to tell) to find a thick blanket of snow on the ground around his countryside home. He decides to build a Snowman which comes to life that night when he wakes up in the night (his parents remain slumbering). Most famous for the song "Walking In The Air", which many a choir (and even Heavy Mithril band Nightwish) has sung at some point. Not to be confused with living snowmen in general.
