Sam was a trader who first appeared west of the Cooks' Guild in Varrock for the 2014 Independence Day Celebration.

In 2015 he reappeared near the bank chest in the Lumbridge Crater for the 2015 Independence Day Celebration, which was conjoined with the Summer Beach Party. He returned again on 4 July 2016 and 3 July 2019 in the same place as the first event in 2014. He reappeared on 3 July 2020, this time in Varrock across the bridge from the Barbarian Village.

He claims to be celebrating his existence and the fact that balloons are appearing from nowhere, although he's not sure why. He reveals that by popping balloons, he received his hat, and proposes that if players popped the balloons, they might get one too.

He ran a shop with a selection of stock from Diango's Toy Stall, but with the addition of a unique item called Liber tea, which couldn't be obtained anywhere else.
