“No Pants” BART Ride Day
The 13th Annual No Pants Subway Ride will take place on Sunday, January 12, 2014 in San Francisco.
The whole point is for 600+ people to ride BART (and then Muni) without any pants (wearing interesting undies and colorful socks) and to keep a straight face and act completely normal.
The event which takes place in over 15 countries around the world is hosted by prank collective Improv Everywhere.
2014 No Pants BART Ride Day
Sunday, January 12, 2014 | 1-5 pm
FREE (but BART fare is required)
RSVP on FacebookBring: Backpack and clipper card or money for BART/Muni
Wear: Normal clothes on top (no nudity… wear colorful or fun undies)
How to Act: Just act completely normal – just pretend you’re going about your day… just not wearing any pants. You do not know any of the other pantless riders. If questioned, tell folks that you “forgot to wear pants” and yes you are “a little cold.” Insist that it is a coincidence that others also forgot their pants. Be nice and friendly and normal.2014 Train Meetup Schedule
