We walked downtown today to check out the San Francisco
No Pants Subway Ride. Hundreds of people participated despite the chilly temperatures (<50 F). Crowds of people emerged from the Embarcadero
BART station at around 2:15 pm, marched up the stairs and out into the streets of San Francisco.
The group made their way to Union Square and beyond on foot. I was looking forward to seeing some folks hanging off the cable car, but no luck.
There was even mainstream media coverage.
We went for lunch at
Lori's Diner after the event. Apparently the "No Shirts, No Shoes, No Service" rule doesn't apply to "No Pants".
The
No Pants Subway Ride was quite the spectacle...Thanks
Improv Everywhere for giving people an excuse to let it all hang out!
Good thing it wasn't in Helsinki! The temperature here has been around -5 to -10 degrees F lately. There's no way I could manage without pants in this weather. If there's wind, too, I even need TWO pairs of pants!

ReplyDelete@Haddock. Why w/o pants? Ask Improv Everywhere: http://improveverywhere.com/ They orchestrated the event.
