It's the Roadrunner underwear that really makes the story. Man strips down after train station sells out of tickets


CHINA - A man who waited in line for 14 hours over the weekend for a train ticket only to be told there were none left stripped off and ran into the station director’s office to complain.

Xiao Wang got his place in line at the train station in Jinhua, eastern China’s Zhejiang Province, to buy a ticket to go home to Shangqiu, central China’s Henan Province for the upcoming Chinese New Year. However, when he finally reached the ticket booth he was told tickets to his hometown were sold out.

Furious he stripped down to his underwear and began shouting at the ticket seller.

He then ran to the station director’s office in order to get “answers.”

“I was shocked in seeing him running inside naked asking for a train ticket,” said director Zheng Wenxian.

Zheng explained to Wang that each day there are only around 100 tickets for Shangqiu so he was unable to help.

    Just be glad it wasn't his Incredible Hulk underoos. That could have gotten REALLY ugly.

    WTF? Why would any line for something like train tickets be 14 hours long? Was there only one guy selling, and a billion people (literally) in line?

    Could you imagine if you had to line up for 14 hours to get a monthly pass at Union??
