It’s that time of year again, when many CTA riders enjoyed a commute sans pants. On January 13 the twelfth annual No Pants Subway Ride took place globally. The event began in 2002 and is staged by Improv Everywhere, a collective that focuses on city-based pranks. 

The Chicago riders met near the Loyola Red Line stop and broke off into groups. Each group had its own designated train cars and pretended that they didn’t know each other. The riders boarded their trains completely clothed and later exited at designated stops. They took off their pants on the platform and re-boarded the next train while acting completely normal. After their pants-less journey, the participants met at 5 Guys in Rogers Park where they enjoyed free drinks in exchange for showing up pants-free.
