"Everybody's doing it," said a man named Mixy. "Why not? You live once in life."

Mixy seemed a little nervous and excited when he took off his pants at the Hollywood and Highland station.

"Some people don't know how to have fun in life," said Mixy.

Danielle was standing nearby with her two young children.

"It's interesting. I was kind of hesitant to bring them but what the Hell? That's Hollywood," said Danielle, "They're going to be exposed to it eventually."
