No pants day returns Saturday to the CTA
Burnish your best boxers. Polish your pantaloons.
It's winter, so it's time to drop your drawers for the annual No Pants Day on the CTA, part of an international group effort.
The Chicago pantsless contingent will meet at noon Saturday near the Granville Red Line station at the Barr Funeral Home parking lot, in the rear of 6222 N. Broadway. See the Facebook update, for the event sponsored by Improv Everywhere. (I will refrain from comments about being pantsless at a funeral home.)
I'm hosting an out-of-town guest or I would be there. Have fun. Get some good photos to post to the CTA Photo Pool on Flickr so they show up here on the right.
Here's coverage from last year's event.

Sounds like a weak excuse to me!
Go Gators!

Can we get a "no fat/hairy" dudes rule this go round? A wonderful event like No Pants Day is unfortunately ruined by the first sighting of big hairy dude leg (or worse...)

Yeah, especially with longitudinal seating like in the photo.

This event wouldn't be the same without all kinds of legs, attractive and unattractive. One of the main reasons I like it is that it harmlessly breaks a widely accepted social rule.
If all the legs seen had to look like they came out of Cosmopolitan (as much as I like those legs), it would undermine the basic point.
