Indeed. Somehow it doesn't seem right that they would hijack Beltaine/Mayday as their No Pants Day. Have they never heard of dancing 'round the maypole, or do they just mean to do the same in their underwear? It seems to indicate a certain ignorance. I'm not a religious person, neither pagan nor anything else, but their choice of date seems ill-advised. Or maybe it is inspired by nude dancing of yore on pagan holidays?

It is only one step removed from choosing Easter as No Pants Day. Both fall among the sabbats and esbats (or quarter days and half quarter days if you prefer) of the old calendar, as do Samhain/Halloween and Yule/Christmas, and others less well known.
