Yeah, I had signed up for Improv Everywhere's mailing list and heard about this one, but wasn't able to make it up to NY that day. I hope to participate at least once while I'm just a short train ride away.

Doug - do they do these sorts of things often? Sounds like a lot of fun...

I think something on the order of one a month, but they probably don't send out blanket emails except for the big ones.

There was another prank a few months ago where people rode the subway without any pants. In another they filled all the listening stations in Virgin's store in Times Square.

Looks like this last prank is getting them a huge amount of publicity. Oh well, back to being behind the curve ;)
