Global No Pants Subway Ride Day

Recently (January 13, I think) was the 12^th annual Global No Pants Subway Ride. On line I saw some photos of people boarding subway trains, riding subway trains, and waiting for their subway trains all sans (French for without) pants, men and women alike. And the people in the pictures looked funny wearing parkas and gloves and socks and boots without their pants too. The photos show that this isn't just celebrated in warm places, it is also celebrated in cold places and it’s a global phenomenon. Maybe it’s like a polar plunge of sorts in places not located near bodies of icy cold water. Maybe if more people participated in a no pants ride once a year they could get the idea of showing their undies out of their systems and pull up their britches instead of walking around with them halfway down, sagging, as it’s called. Maybe we should have a no pants day, and not just on the subway ride, once a year so everyone could have an opportunity to participate in or just see how silly (or in some cases-chilly) it looks. In places where there are no subway systems, we could just all go to Wal-Mart.
