You surely won't want to see this on your way to work: annual 'No Pants Subway Ride'

We don't know where to look!

The annual 'No Pants Subway Ride' took place on the 11th January.

Don't worry, we mean pants as in trousers. Not wearing underwear would almost certainly be illegal!

The idea behind the mission is interesting: Random passengers board a subway car at separate stops in the middle of winter without pants. The participants behave as if they do not know each other, and are all dressed in winter coats, hats, scarves, and gloves. The only common thing is their lack of pants.

The annual event has its roots in New York. It  was started by a clique of seven guys in 2002 as a prank, and has grown into international celebration of silliness. Dozens of cities worldwide now participate.

Manspreading may be annoying, but at least they're usually wearing trousers!
