The looks on their faces tell the whole story. Fellow passengers grin, giggle, try to look the other way and gawk at the No-pants brigade as they ride the train in their clothes, minus the pants but still wearing underwear (thankfully).
The video footage attached was from the 2010 New York No Pants Subway Ride, but Sapa reports that 34 people were arrested in Gauteng on Sunday for a “No Pants Gautrain Ride”. They were fined R700 each.
According to City Press, the event was meant to coincide with the 10th annual “No Pants Subway Ride” in New York. City Press story here.
Judging by this video it’s all very innocent and the participants in the States know how to behave while giving their pants a day off. – Ridge Correspondent

This is so funny . . . .and in Jo’burg the local version participants are fined for “wearing the wrong clothes…” Only in Africa!
In certain parts of Durban women need to be careful about wearing long pants, never mind undies!
