Improv Everywhere's Black Tie Beach Stunt

New York beach-goers were given a treat this weekend as when Improv Everywhere agents descended upon them for their latest stunt, 'Black Tie Beach.' This stunt involved men and women of all ages going to the beach in formalwear.

Coney Island and Brighton Beach were the targets of the prank. Participants in the Black Tie Beach stunt got the full beach experience while being dressed head-to-toe in cheap suits and dresses. Check out the gallery above to see photographic evidence of Improv Everywhere's latest shenanigans.
