This is my kind of event. I can't seem to find a real reason for No Pants 2k8 except for fun. And semi-nudity.
The organisers have decided on a time and subway station, and all you have to do is rock up, acting as if everything is normal, and catch the train. Without your pants on. But don't go thinking this is just more silly, crazy New Yorker, tomfoolery. There are strict rules (no laughing, no nastiness, no g-bangers) but it is all in good fun. The idea is to make other people laugh, stare and feel ever-so-slightly awkward.
There are No Pants 2k8 happening in the following cities: New York, Boston, Washington DC, Portland, San Francisco, Chicago, Toronto, Baltimore, Salt Lake City and Adelaide, Australia! It's on today, Saturday 12th January.

Get yer pants off!
