Guy in a Thong Disturbs Mall Shoppers

A college student and his friend were hoping for an interesting photo shoot at the Solomon Pond Mall on Friday, but instead freaked a whole bunch of shoppers out. Eric Watterson, 18, Lancaster, was arrested by police after he went to the mall nearly naked, reported the Boston Globe.

Mall security caught Watterson, who took off a robe to bare only a thong, when he stood in line outside to get in to the mall at midnight.

Watterson was charged with open and gross lewdness and disturbing the peace, said the Worcester Telegram and Gazette. Watterson’s friend, Dan Anders, said that the two weren’t planning to go inside and shop, and only wanted to create a “satirical” photo shoot. Some 500-700 people were in line to get in to the mall at the time.
