Top and Bottom

As soon as we stepped aboard this Red Line train at Park the theme song from The Patty Duke Show popped into our heads (video of theme song embedded below).

Just look at the color yellow on the pants of the gentleman on top. Then look at the color of the jacket of the gentleman on bottom. They're identical!  Who would expect this shade of yellow on the T in winter?                                                                            

And it wasn't two sightings on the T, nor two sightings on the T in one day. Not even two sightings on the same train on the same day. No. During this season of exclusively charcoal and black it was two men wearing the same color yellow on the same train in the same car right next to each other! And look at the bottom gent’s blue shoes. That color blue blends in with the blue on the top gent's athletic bag, and then completes the pairing with a blending with his bluish grey fleece jacket.

Two nice looking men who exude two very different personalities, yet look so incredibly similar.

We couldn’t help but notice that they both disembarked at MIT. They dressed for their destination!

Please don’t think we’re ridiculing their attire. We’re not. We like it. It gave us a bright smile on a winter day. And we’ll remember them, and their fine sense of style (and eclectic choice of colors), for a long time.
