Random photo of the day: Pandarazzi



Picture this: I'm standing in line to have my photo taken with the olympic torch because that's what all the cool kids are doing, or so I'm told. Suddenly a car pulls up to the curb and two men jump out. One dressed in a Chinese changsan and hat and the other wearing a panda suit. They paused for a couple of minutes, posing for photos with whoever wanted one, and then jumped back in their car and sped off. As far as I can tell, they didn't have anything to do with the Olympics or anything else. Just the usual random weirdness of life.

I like the surreal twist on paparazzi-style photos. What do you think?

1. That's Fantastic!
I love it! If you didn't have the photo, it would sound like you might be on an acid trip...

11. I don't know...
All it proves to me is that somehow he can take pictures of his hallucinations.

(Awesome picture!)

3. Wow - that's great! I would have loved to have been there. The 'expression' on
the panda's face is funny. Guess it's just the twist of the head, but it looks quizzical.

4. my thoughts on this
So, why don't random pandas show up in traffic next to me? ;)

Where in the world do you get a panda costume?

10. I don't know where to get a panda suit
I wish more people would drive around in costume. It would make life more interesting.
