Bizarre Love Triangle

Bizarre Love Triangle, by New Order, is a song on the Lancaster Canon. Commonly known as "BLT," it is one of the more popular songs in the Canon, aided in no small part by one of Lancaster's most unique traditions. During BLT, many students take off their pants and dance around in their underwear -- boxers only, please -- brandishing their unworn legwear. Meanwhile, many more students and staff line up in two parallel rows and hold hands to form a human tunnel, through which the underdressed dancers pass as they circle the quad. This tunnel seems to get longer every year, and likely stretches well over a hundred feet.

BLT has been de facto Canon for at least a decade, and the tradition of dropping trou is likewise around ten years old. Perhaps surprisingly, the administration has tolerated the students' ecdysis with little resistance. Students choosing to go pantsless must wear boxers, and may not run or swing their pants over their heads. So long as they abide by those regulations, though, they are free to take it off, baby! Take it allpartially off!

The non-running-or-swinging regulation was added sometime after 1999...

BLT is also sometimes called the "Underwear Song" or "Boxer Dance," for obvious reasons.
