Silly-pants: Londoners dress down to underpants to celebrate no trousers day in tube

London: In commemoration of the No Trousers Tube Ride, which made its return to the UK, this weekend, since the epidemic hit in March 2020, riders of the underground rail partially undressed on Monday. The no pants fun, which started 20 years ago in New York on the opposite side of the Atlantic, attracted hundreds of Sunday travellers.

The Stiff Upper Lip Society organised the event, which featured attendees dressed in professional office attire on their top halves and only in underwear, shoes, and socks on their lower halves.

The odd custom was developed by the stand comics of Improv Everywhere in New York City in 2002.
