Transit riders drop trou


PHOENIX, Jan. 11 (UPI) -- Mass transit riders in 24 cities, including Phoenix and Atlanta, say they road pantless as part of a performance act started eight years ago in New York.

The No-Pants participants rode only in their shirts and underwear Saturday, acting as if nothing was awry, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Sunday, noting the international stunt is sponsored by the arts group "Improv Everywhere."

At least 34 people participated in Atlanta, including Patrick Carlson, a design-firm owner who wore shiny blue boxers that matched his suit and tie.

In Phoenix, more than 90 pantless people participated, ranging from gray-haired men in suits to young women with neon-colored hair, The Arizona Republic reported Sunday.

"We need more things like this," said Ken Weise, vice mayor of Avondale, Ariz., who was riding but not participating during a train ride into Phoenix.

1. They're re-enacting one of my recurring dreams!

Getting on the bus and realizing that I'm pantless or wearing just a bathrobe or variations thereof is a dream I have all the time. Something to do with fear of exposure, I'm told. Dunno why, it's not like I'm practicing brain surgery without a licence or anything like that.
