Many London Underground riders went pantsless on Sunday as part of No Pants Subway Ride, which originated in New York City. Since pants mean underwear in the U.K., Brits were careful to clarify that trousers were optional, knickers weren’t. According to the group’s Facebook page, 250-300 people participated this year!

    So relieved to hear this was the American definition of pants! I have to wonder, though, if January in London is the best month for this caper. Not my idea of fun 🙂
