Seen thinking this was more fun when they didn't have to wear pants are (l-r) Ted Volk, Simon Glickman, Karen Glauber, Todd Hensley, Pollack, Michael Dominguez, Nicole Ghapgharan, Bud Scoppa, Jamie Mitchell, Lenny Beer and Jesse MacMillan.

Dennis Lavinthal was on vacation and unavailable for comment.
