North Attleborough postal worker delivers Christmas cheer as ‘Buddy the Elf’

NORTH ATTLEBOROUGH, Mass. (WLNE) — For over a decade, a North Attleborough postal worker has delivered packages and Christmas cheer as Buddy the Elf.

Some North Attleborough residents know him as Scott the mailman, but others, know him as Buddy the Elf.

Since 2011, Scott Phillips has been delivering packages door to door as “Buddy.”

It all started when his son showed up on Christmas morning dressed in the green and yellow suit.

“All of a sudden, I see my son walking up with Christmas presents, and he’s in the window…I’m like, ‘This is so awesome!’”

Scott tried on the costume, and since then, has been suiting up as Buddy the Elf every Dec. 23 and Christmas Eve.
