Riding a Light Rail Car in Skivvies
« on: January 11, 2010, 09:02:18 PM »
It's Sunday afternoon and North Texas barely gotten through a hard freeze. A group of 70 people (mostly in their 20s) in Downtown Dallas hopped on the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) Light Rail northbound to Downtown Garland. As the train took off, so did their pants. :blink: You've read right. Those 70 people participated in what was called a "nationwide event". Why did they do it? One of the 2 dudes who organized the event said he "didn't have anything better to do" that day.

Why don't they just go to Church? Do community service? Play basketball? Jump in a freezing pool or lake and start a Polar Bear club of their own? Read a book? Something.

Anyways, it was quite a trip, but not without a hefty price. One of the riders who witnessed the event (with her pants very much on) called DART Police. Going public in your undies IS considered disorderly conduct after all.

I saw this in the paper this morning, and I have to say that this is one of the dumbest things I have ever seen. :blink: The article never really said why the people did it though...was it really just for fun??? :wacko:

And what is this supposed nationwide event? I don't understand this story much at all. :no: Glad I wasn't there to experience it.
