Ya, I browsed through the article and zeroed in on Christmas caroling being related to drunken people running nude through the streets and singing. Was hoping for a fun little anecdote next time someone brought up going Christmas caroling.
But turns out that all seems to be bunk. Caroling seems to be related to the early practice of going door to door as peasants singing and asking for food/gifts from feudal lords... "... so bring us some figgy pudding, and bring it right here."
