Your low hanging pants remain safe from government interference! A few years back, after a judge ruled it was not illegal to wear your pants low, Mayor Bloomberg came out to say "I don't think the government should be in the business of telling people what they should wear." Today on his weekly radio show hizzoner reiterated his semi-supportive stance on sub-groin slacks. Even nanny states have to draw the line somewhere! more ›

A Brooklyn woman who was presumably starting to decorate the walls of her TGI Fridays stole a NYPD license plate off a squad car and stuffed it down her pants. The Post reports that 53-year-old Beryl Duncan stole the plate off a car near Prospect Park, where cops were sent to dissolve a large crowd. A witness told the responding officer what Duncan had done, and when confronted, she denied it. This sort of flirtation worked brilliantly in 5th grade, but the technique does not age well. more ›

In case the bazillion photos were not enough, there's finally some video documentation of this year's No Pants Subway Ride! Just regular YouTube video, not 3-D, not IMAX, not Smell-O-Vision... and not once is there a rat attack. But maybe next year one of those elements can be added... because how many years in a row can one look at pantless subway riders? more ›

Even though a surveillance camera appeared to film him stealing a 12-pound turkey breast in his pants, Deon Williams denied the tryptophan-tinged theft, telling the Post, "I didn't do it. OK, I stole a cold-cut sandwich because I was hungry, but I put everything [else] back." more ›

Where to begin? A State Senator who threw Albany into gridlock for over a month last year, allegedly looted $14 million from his healthcare non-profit, threatened a 70-something blogger, and supposedly stiffed the tailor who makes his $1,200 suits is now telling youths to raise their image by raising their pants. State Senator Pedro Espada has joined fellow Senator Eric Adam's Stop the Sag campaign, according to the Daily Politics. more ›

[UPDATE BELOW] Natavia Lowery's trial has come to a close after four weeks, and the jury is currently deliberating where this young lady will go next! In 2007 she was accused of killing her boss—real estate agent to the stars and former manager of the Ramones—Linda Stein. Since then it's been a long road that's included confessions, retracted confessions, yoga sticks, ninjas, and so much more. more ›

Last week, we suggested that Natavia Lowery's pants were different after coming out of Linda Stein's apartment on the day of her murder (Lowery is currently on trial for bludgeoning her former boss to death). While originally it looked like she had changed them, a commenter specified that she had turned them inside out. more ›

Natavia Lowery is sticking to her original story that her former boss Linda Stein was a feisty pot-smoking racist. She claimed Stein fought with everyone, from her daughters to building workers—but of course never fought with Lowery, they "had a fine relationship." This all comes from early questioning by homicide cops, which came out during a trial testimony yesterday by Detective Angelique Lofredo. more ›

[UPDATE BELOW] The hits keep coming in the trial of Natavia Lowery, who is accused of bludgeoning her former boss Linda Stein to death in 2007. But before we get to yesterday's testimony from Stein's ex-husband, music producer Seymour Stein, there's something else that has come to our attention. more ›

It's nice and chilly out there, perfect weather to take those pants off! Slip into your best skivvies, Improv Everywhere has posted details for this year's No Pants Subway Ride (their 9th one!), which will take place on Sunday January 10th at 3 p.m. sharp. If you want to participate, you're going to have to be able to shed those pantaloons and keep a straight face about it while on the subway. Check their site for meeting places (which include spots in Queens, Brooklyn and Manhattan), and get ready to see some skin. They ask that you do not wear thongs (phew) and say that if you are questioned, tell the person that you “forgot to wear pants." Send us your photos if you spot any of these fairweather exhibitionists! more ›

The NY Post is not shying away from tackling large-scale national issues. So following some comments last week from President-elect Obama dissing guys who let their pants ride low, they sent a reporter out onto the streets of New York to see what kind of reaction he'd get while looking like a lost member of the Funky Bunch. The reporter, Justin Rocket Silverman, encountered girls who rejected him, a maitre d' who begrudgingly gave him a table and cops who told him how much they enjoy the gangsta style because it makes chasing perps all the easier as they struggle to keep their waistline up. The Post says that New York is considering a fine against the look that has already been put on the books in Lousiana. Obama doesn't support going that far, but did say, "Brothers should pull up their pants. You're walking by your mother, your grandmother, and your underwear is showing - what's wrong with that?" more ›

We've already seen the Borat speedo marathon get up--but a new video shows Steve Guttenberg, of Police Academy fame, upping the ante in revealing running gear. NYMag notes that he's "clearly in on the gag," but 1 minute and 44 seconds of a pantless Guttenberg running and stretching in Central Park is the end result none-the-less (consider that a warning). more ›
