I knew I liked those Czechs. This post is a how-to guide on dropping a political F-bomb with style. Basically, a group of artists said, “Mr. President (Milos Zeman), you have pissed us off. Here are some ginormous red boxers for you. In your face!”
Did you see that video? With the three creeping chimney sweeps running a prank that screams of high school toilet paper parties? It’s hilarious.
** All three people were detained over the swapping of this flag **
Yes, I know they were technically “desecrating public property.” But it’s not like they graffitti’d or defaced the flag. They just decided their president didn’t warrant the dignity of a flag over Prague Castle – instead he got UNDERPANTS.
No words even needed to be spoken.
Note: These are size XXXXXXXL, right? (Photo credit: AFP – via BBC.com)
A Czech art group has replaced the flag flying above the presidential palace with a huge pair of underpants in protest against President Milos Zeman.
Three men clambered onto the roof of the the official building dressed as chimney sweeps on Saturday. They have since been arrested.
The Ztohoven group said the new flag was for “a man who is not ashamed of anything”.
Think of this amazing trend… What kind of undie hijinks could protesting artists get up to across the globe? And how did they find boxers in this size?? We need the name of that vendor.
Which world leader do you think deserves to have their flagpole “pantsed” (if you know what I mean…) What kind of undies would send the proper message? (I vote for Scratch and Sniff.) We’ve had a plethora to choose from, right? Enquiring minds need to know these things here at More Cowbell!
Happy Monday, y’all.

That’s funny! I hope they get released.

Very entertaining! I can’t believe the three were able to get that close unless it was an “inside” job. I know it poses a risk, but it carries a message.

Absolutely, Patricia. Apparently “chimney sweeps” are still a thing in Prague, and that’s how they got in. They sure as heck made their point. 🙂

Right? I have no idea if they stitched that pair of shorts themselves, or if there’s a vendor I need to know about. 🙂

They’re definitely letting it all hang out, huh? Letting their freak flag fly… Gotta admire the moxy.

Can you imagine trying to fly those over the White House? If you only got arrested you would be lucky. And there probably is a vendor out there. My dad used to own a men’s clothing store and specialized in big and tall. I think we had a pair of that big boys overalls in stock back in the day. 🙂

Oh, I have a feeling the person would get shot – we’re not a fan of people invading the White House. Apparently Castle Prague has a whole different standard of security. 🙂

LOL! The Confederate flag should be replaced with a pair of skidmarked tighty whities!

Ohmygawd!!! I just read this and went, “No, he didn’t…” But, yes, you did use “skidmarked tighty whities” skillfully in a sentence. Fine job!
