The Pat-Down: Guys Who Run With Their Shirts Off

[BirdGirlPrincess]

Guys, it's just a parody :) WGN is my news station and they do this stuff all of the time. I find it all hilarious! :D

[MarciVG]

Very funny. I love the Pat Down. My husband has about 2% body fat, and runs like 20 miles at a time on the lakefront, usually without a shirt, so I especially found this funny. And all his skinny running friends who don't wear a shirt either. For those leaving negative comments, I assume you don't have a sense of humor or get the whole concept of the Pat Down.

[darchylde612]

@MarciVG the whole concept of sarcasm is lost to a lot of folks on here marcivg...like you i love the pat down segments and find most laugh out loud hilarious....again most folks tend to be (unnecessarily) dense. cheers! :-)

[JDBGPS]

Much more comfortable and nice to see =)

[kj123go]

D-BAGS

[markxxx21]

Pat works out at my gym. He's a dwarf. If he's 5'3" that's pushing it. And 90% of that height is due to his HUGE ASS. It's the biggest butt I've ever seen

[ZaxAttax]

Guys run with their shirts off because its way more comfortable and helps with the tan. Maybe you should try running instead of fixing your hair for an hour and maybe you would understand.

[NJMatman]

@ZaxAttax You are correct about guys running with their shirts off. Its is more comfortable and it is easier to run. I run better without my shirt. I enjoy running early in the morning without my shirt. It is much cooler at night. I feel good about myself. For years I have been embarrased to go out without a shirt but I want to exercise and get in shape and stop feeling embarrased. I already went to the beach without a shirt and I felt great.

[RyJsLn]

Only people who are funny should try comedy... this "story" is just stupid...

[killersushi99]

We shouldnt judge. Thats why I say men or women should run with their shirts off. Mostly women with C cups or bigger.

[darchylde612]

i have to say pat's got a nice lil body on him! he's a yum yum!

[hardjosh]

@darchylde612 "nice lil body"? coupla things....crunches, dead lifts and curls. the only thing thats "yum yum" and has a lotta fat is ice cream.

[darchylde612]

@hardjosh with all due respect sir, you like what you like and that's your prerogoative; i like what I like. afford me the same courtesy.

[darchylde612]

omg it's obvious that sarcasm and tongue-in-cheek humour is totally lost on the majority of the responders to this post...the first thing the bulk of the posters focused on was that pat tomasulo's got to be gay; what a bunch of idiotic homophobes.

[BigWhiteSun]

shut up for fucks sake. hes not gay hes having a joke about mens motives for taking their shirts off. Hes acting arrogant to make it funny.

[tinofilipino]

hasn't he heard of nipple chafing?

[booley]

Not really sure soldiers who have to wear body armor if they want to live and people enjoying the beach is really a valid comparison.

Soldiers actually DO have to worry about heat prostration. It's just they have to worry about bullets more.

BTW, not sure a straight guy (who seems just a tiny bit homophobic) is the best judge of a guy's hotness. Some of those guys didn't look to bad. Certainly the scantily clad women didn't bother Tomasulo

Why can't he do what I do? Not stare?

[Toyman6000]

patttt gotta be gay

[bcjammer]

IMF I cannot watch his lame arrogance beyond the catch phrase. If I see this dude I swear I'll punch him in the vagina

[72ve17]

keep teasing those guys Pat and one of them might rape you

[GeorgeTSLC]

It's not creepy, it's funny. Or at least, Pat and his producers think so . .

Of course it's also desperately wrong-headed! But arguing in favor of shirtlessness while running in a suit and tied tie would be merely weird.

[sexironz]

It's creepy no matter his sexual orientation....

[tigerborn62]

Dear Pat, Please marry me. :)

[123websearch]

I like pat!

[feastoffun]

Disgusting? I think he needs to take a look at his sexual attraction towards men. Closet case!

[Dudemag]

lol that intro is hilarious

[cexcells85]

who cares if its gay ?

[MissQueenAshley]

LOL!!

[camsw4]

what a sad man

[LUVMEN21]

GOD HE LOOKS GREAT!!! IN THIS VID!!!!

[SkittlesLoli]

His personality is much uglier than any shirtless running man I've seen.

[mtbman802]

this guy is a huge dick and needs to come out of the closet

[ta2dluvboy]

i think only a closet case would care so much that he'd have to use his very public forum to talk about it like this.

[GeorgeTSLC]

@ta2dluvboy: It's not only closet cases who're made uncomfortable when a guy asserts his right to go bare-chested. It's ALL those infected by the new prudery that holds any display of chest by male OR female is inherently sexual and therefore unacceptable. I, over 60 & a bit overweight, have been told by a supermarket mgr that I needed to consider the children! If anyone knows how seeing a shirt-free man might injure a child, please do explain.

[mitch7951]

That is the best part of summer - dudes without their shirts.

[LUVMEN21]

@mitch7951 HELL YEAH!!!!

[PeeboTyson]

What a fruitcake!

[JMPCHI76]

Will someone tell Gilbert Godfried they are at the beach?

[SonicDeeHedgehog]

This guy is a douchebag

[account0220]

ur name is pat tomasulo you live in illinois

[JediMaraJade2048]

This is ridiculous, but funny.

[aquest4u]

dont be such a boob, why the fuck do you care if guys run with their shirts off? and why is there a double standard? If women were out there running in bathing suit tops, you would have NO problem, you are a jackass....

[bjblyrical]

i agree with him, i dont want to see a shirtless guy either. Jesus.. you're the jackass. you fuckin dick headed prick.

[RenoLLC]

i believe the real reason is to get a nice even tan that the ladies cant resist, and since only men can legally bear their nipples, its good that the right is exercised

[TheHardTruth101]

Damn none of those dudes should have had their shirts off!!!

[MrThomashope]

Except,maybe, Mr. 1:30! HOT! Seriously, unless you're in the gym every day - keep it covered!

[dancingninja21]

R U serious?! We should encourage people to b comfortable with their bodies, not telling them to cover it up

[tookietookie123]

Something's telling me you'd like that...

[bakert7000]

In Chicago uppper 60's is hot, some of the guys looked hot, I liked his hairy chest, but not the suit look.

[groundpounderusmc]

i could see if they were in a neighborhood or something... but their at the beach... well lakeside anyhow... i live in florida... rule of thumb here, if there's water... bikinis and board shorts are proper attire... pat is a moron

[tzilla4424]

I'm wondering why people think that Lake Michigan is an ocean. He is in Chicago on the lakefront. There are no oceans anywhere near chicago.

[MrInmyopinion]

oh and i am sure somebody is feeding the ducks in that huge LAKE..LOL in the background.

[MrInmyopinion]

I think its more of an American/celebrity thing I dont think I have ever seen anyone in London parks running without a t-shirt or vests on. Show offs..lol

[HolyCow3000]

i don't mind if their HOT

[Tyrhonius]

Someone tell Pat to keep his shirt on!

[vagqws]

pat is so funny!!!!!

[6GUNSOUTH]

Wow worthy reporting? not... get a life

[100nemesis100]

Tamizushi, it is the theme to Chariots of Fire.

[tonyusername1]

Sook sook, cry cry, that's all i'm hearin'

[rohannahor1987]

one of the guys, calls the ocean/beach a lake! hahahah they don't know the difference between an ocean and a lake !hahahahahahahah

[BLOODYECKO]

it is a lake lake Michigan lolololoolololololololol

 Chicago its in the Midwest

[heyyyitskayyy]

@rohannahor1987 You're an idiot. He's a Chicago sportscaster and he's at LAKE MICHIGAN. You fucking dumbass.

[Tamizushi]

It doesn't border me at all. you can go around nude if you want I couldn't care less. Except if you a hot chick. then it's possible it will affect me but in a good way.

[pfoster8426]

does anybody know the name of the song that comes in at about 35 seconds?

[mprice2009]

lol i for one think there should be more men running without their shirst on!! i like a little eye candy now and then

[silensen]

zero

[TrouvonsLesEtoiles]

Here in Houston, TX, it can get up to 95 degrees.

Hell, even 88 degrees with all this disgusting humidity is enough so that if you wear a shirt, it weighs you down a hell of a bunch.

Especially when you're trying to compete with other people who don't have a shirt on and are running more freely- taking your shirt off is a way to cool down in hot weather and quicken your pace to maximize your workout.

At least, that's the way I think about it. I only take off my shirt when it's necessary.

[metallicafu11]

this is kinda gay even for a news clip

[localchili]

...yeah, nice work getting the point.

[xapplimatic]

You know, I'm sooo tired of the it's all about women and tits on TV etc.. Since we can't get to see guys members but get to see tits all we want, this is a minor compensation perhaps?

[hetfield9900]

"hey its the double-mint twins double breaking my heart" lmao

[mmitchellhouston]

Heh. Ya made me laugh, amigo!

[peter8691]

The American puritanical hippocritical preoccupation with propriety. Get over it.

[hardfi123]

Awesome real life trolling.

[hungry4danish]

Never really noticed there was a "Chicago accent" until I moved away. Hearing this guy made me realize that there really is one!

[Runeless]

It's not disgusting! I'm glad some guys can't keep their shirts on all the time. Take it off guys!!!! :)

[lintbobkey]

the guy talking in the end is realllyy cute!!! (:

[superstition222]

People who have a problem with nudity have self-esteem issues or are just control freaks.

[p54ch0]

or civilized.

[lbplayer177]

They can show off all they want!

[Tokkalover]

LOL that guy is so funny!

[GhostRogue]

GAYYY LOL. YOU ROCK dude! <3!

Go pat!

Double break my heart lololol!

[reighost]

'sculpted ass' lol

[Typicalshit]

Va Da Fader?

[Yamakashi1]

we lucky that guy wears pants

own

[rosal2006]

do more .....

[MartyredxMaiden]

OMG you're hilarious

[pl23pl]

To those of you saying, "they run with their shirts off to keep cool", did you not notice Pat telling some of those guys it's 68 and breezy? Last I checked, 68 breezy by the lake is not 'take off my shirt to cool off' weather. So yes, Pat is right in taking aim at these douche bags.

[GeorgeTSLC]

@pl23pl: If you're running, even barely under 70 degrees w/ a light breeze at a lake, you're likely to be warm enough without swathing your torso. And the sun feels so good on your skin *especially* when the air is cool!

And @ all of you who assume that the natural state of man is clothed and there has to be some major reason for a male to go shirtless: Not all of your fellow humans believe that. Not even in the urban U.S.A.

[kthankxbye]

I would never break your heart, oh and make your intros shorter, they are way to long.

[attackzack8]

mmmmmmmmmmm

[customcartoons]

Thank you thank you THANK YOU, Pat! For giving some dudes the Cat-calling Construction Worker treatment for a change! We women appreciate it! ^_^

[zon100]

haha this guy is pretty good.

[Uzibit]

Yawn...

[openmind75]

that host has a really weird short torso.

[loozin5no0tyme]

I lolled at the NY accent.

[loulou4201]

They were all white but one guy. it's simple, its called multitasking. Getting a tan and exercising. God forbid. Look, if you don't like it look away they'll run by you in a second. If your normal you don't care. If your gay, than your the guy in the video.

[CandyHiccups]

There are many people who go running without shirts and they have a bit of a tummy or a hairy chest and for everyone else's sake, they should be wearing a shirt. XD

[ricksea888]

OMG I want to pat him down with my tongue!!!

[amazeroth]

this sucks, making such a thing at a beach

[VashTSPD2]

it sucks? yeah right man this was hilarious. esp 0:34 and 1:27

[O8SOL3TE]

I laughed so hard when he appeared at 0:34!

[HungryNomadicLion]

They are at the beach...you are supposed to take your shirt off at the beach. Either this guy is jealous, or he really does get "distracted" by guys with their shirts off.

What's the big deal?

[chrissup19]

They are running on the side walk near the beach, some were actually at the beach lol, it's not a big deal, it's just funny and stupid.

[AnaLetixoxo]

um u didnt get it...

[HungryNomadicLion]

um...what didn't I get by this, that it's a joke? No shit. It's just not funny.

[Arriss3]

@HungryNomadicLion

yea while your tanning or playing in the water. 1:19 so much truth in those words.

[Top40ModernRockPlay]

Somebody please bring John Wayne back.

[G0bbleMyG00]

i hate faggots who run with their shirts off.

[Nilguiri]

That was pretty, pretty, pretty funny.

[Timthewicked]

Wow. Not funny at all.

[Neroin88]

Let people go shirtless if they want to, it's it's none of your business.

[Xxgaaras1girlxX]

XD He's so funny.

[oboros42]

WTG, Pat. Go get 'em!

[nw1982]

Pat's hot.

[Iowaholds08]

I was't thinking the wind city has those fit guys. Hey Pat, like the way you shade off the fake water from you head. And it a slow motion! ha ha ha

[PoliticsAddict]

i think pat wants to pat down some of these shirtless men.

[Iowaholds08]

you are naturaly funny. Like you! keep the good work.

[tanklin111]

no one likes a sweaty shirt tho...

he wouldnt know cuz he dont work hard enuff 2 sweat

[rammy612]

this wanna be reporter is an ass. he should be doing gay porn with a gag on the receiving end. everyone feels things differently,i.e pain,temperature, etc. do scientific research, not this ridiculous "reporting". there are real things going on in the world. why make fun of anyone. maybe he was the "fat" kid or something..

[easycomedy]

Maybe this guy has shirtless shame...either way, ugly ass guys with hairy backs should keep their shirts on ...and Matthew McConnaughey...He's gonna look like a blotchy scab before long. BUT, that aside, this is a DUMB video...yes, stop bitching about people who look better than you. At least they're making an effort....well some of us don't have to, ha-ha!!!! ......Oh look....there goes my shirt!!!

[VancouverCanucksRock]

May you please wax my hairy back and crack for me?

[MargaritasAntesPorco]

The reporter doesn't "get it". Some guys might run shirtless out of pure vanity,...but alot of shirtless runners are doing it because in high temps its just MUCH more comfortable. The risk of heat stroke on such scorchers is very very real. Running shirtless is easier to disipate body heat and keep your "cool" and keep going. Its also a way to absorb a little Vit. D....

[DES3450]

This would've been even more hilarious if Pat ran down with loafers instead of sneakers. Its still a funny clip!

[ronthereddragon]

lmao

[rammy612]

this guy is a douchebag.....

[easycomedy]

Excellent observation!

[92benno92]

Wow .. I think this is a stupid show reporting on stupid things? Like it's the beach? I'm pretty sure it's normal for people with a good body to run without a shirt. Why not look good?

[thundakat29]

No one needs to see guys shirtless in the street. Relax. It doesn't look good, it looks uncivilized.

[TheBottyBotty5]

haha so true

[motleyhar]

It's really sad how he sucks in his stomach and pumps out his chest... very sad. This guy is pathetic and I pray that he reads this so he knows how pathetic he is.

[Lax1900]

shirts should be off when temps are over 60

[blkchicago79]

lol... funny. ;-)

[Y0uEnj0yMyself]

lol

[3rkid2]

Lmao, nice one.

Agree'd.

[Nypopsicle18]

What's the big deal? Go to Florida, TONS of fit guys with their shirts off jogging. Please go back to 1965,loser.

[bglad4life]

Grow up.

[Nypopsicle18]

Grow up? Did you even read my comment....

[bglad4life]

You called Pat a loser, so grow up.

[Nypopsicle18]

Are you his boyfriend? I'm sorry. Don't get too butthurt over it. I'm sure your sports bra keep your moobs in their place while you "jog".

[bglad4life]

Ya, you got it, I'm his boyfriend...Jeez teeny boppers are so freakin stupid...especially when they have to turn to youtube to make fun of people behind the safety of their computer screen. No "moobs" here either by the way. Next time you feel the need to comment, don't. Get over yourself.

[Nypopsicle18]

Teeny boppers? So you know everything about me based on a stupid youtube troll fight? Tsk tsk. You must be damn gullible in reality. I'm 27, just had a son about a month ago. Guess that makes me a teeny bopper,right? And the easter bunny keeps his eggs safe in my asshole too.

[bglad4life]

poor easter bunny.....

[deanersch1]

really funny

really

affected.
