"In Cleveland there is legislation moving forward to ban people from wearing pants that fit too low. However, there is lots of opposition from the plumber' union"

About this Quote

This quote by Conan O'Brien is a funny take on a genuine issue in the city of Cleveland. The legislation being referenced is a proposed restriction on wearing trousers that fit too low, also known as "sagging trousers." This style of using pants, popularized in hip hop culture, involves wearing trousers below the waist, frequently exposing underclothing. The legislation is facing opposition from the plumbing professional's union, which is likely a play on words as plumbers are known for using trousers that fit low due to the nature of their work. O'Brien is using satire to highlight the absurdity of the proposed ban and the paradox of the plumbing technician's union opposing it.
