UCLA Undie Run

In the middle of final exams each trimester, UCLA undergrads strip down to their chonies, fill up on keg beer, and go for a midnight run. As with all such rituals, the tradition started as a spontaneous act of defiance and exhibitionism (in response to cops cracking down on the prior -- and lamer -- tradition of the "Midnight Yell"), then became an institution that eventually earned itself its own police escort. Now Undie Runners gather by the thousands for what's got to be the most photographed and flickr'd event in Westwood. Here's a booty from last night's run.
