There is a new trend in men’s retail in D.C.: Delayed gratification.

Yesterday was the annual No Pants Metro Ride, and plenty of photographers were on hand to catch riders wearing little more than their skivvies on the train.

Community leaders in Prince George’s County want young residents to hoist up their pants, and they’re collecting belts to make it easier for them.

Yes, we’ve always had an inkling that Montgomery County was a tweak or two away from full-on collective dementia, but it appears as if the U.S. Open golf tournament at Congressional Country Club may have pushed it over the edge.

In case you missed yesterday’s late-breaking news, the D.C. Court of Appeals unanimously denied Roy Pearson’s petition hear his appeal for a second time. A three-judge panel previously rejected Pearson’s first appeal of his epic $54 million lawsuit against the Chung family-owned dry cleaner over a missing pair of pants. The latest decision found six judges all agreeing with the previous ruling. In a release to the press this morning, Chung family lawyer Christopher…

Last year’s No Pants Metro Ride, the first time the long-running New York City event had been held in D.C., resulted in no arrests and several funny photos. From the looks of the DCist Flickr pool this morning, Saturday’s repeat event went much the same way. Considering how cold and rainy the day ended up being, all we can think while looking at these images is, “Brrrrrr!”…

You have just got to be friggin’ kidding me. The Associated Press is reporting that former administrative law judge Roy Pearson has filed a petition with the D.C. Court of Appeals requesting that his $54 million pants lawsuit case be reheard again, this time by a nine-judge panel. Three appellate judges ruled last month that Pearson’s lawsuit had no merit. Pearson is now arguing that those judges failed to address all the issues in…

Court of Appeals has rejected Pearson’s appeal of the $54 million lawsuit he filed over a misplaced pair of pants, WTOP is reporting. From the ruling: Appellant failed to establish either that the Chungs’ “Satisfaction Guaranteed” and “Same Day Service” signs constituted false or misleading statements, or that they lost his pants. Thus, the judgment for the Chungs on the fraud and CPPA…

Marc Fisher has the best summary of today’s arguments at the D.C. Court of Appeals. The good news for former administrative law judge Roy Pearson’s epic, seemingly unending $54 million pants lawsuit, writes Fisher, is that the three judges hearing the appeal were “not buying Pearson’s notion that a shop sign that promises ‘Satisfaction Guaranteed’ means that a merchant must honor any cockamamie demand that an unhappy customer might make.” We probably won’t have a…

Remember when we told you that Roy Pearson, he of the $54 million missing pants lawsuit, was refusing to fade away quietly and heading back to court to press his appeal? Well today’s the big day! Looks like the AP has a reporter at the D.C. Court of Appeals, so we’ll be waiting patiently to find out whether the three-judge appellate court panel could possibly agree to overturn the lower court ruling and order a…
