A Little (or not so little) Backstory

The first no pants subway ride started in 2002 as a small prank with only seven guys. Over the years that number has grown to 3,500 participants in New York City alone, and thousands more in 48 cities nationwide and counting.

The annual subway stunt is organized by Improv Everywhere, a comedic art troupe based in NYC.
