Confused Beachgoers React to Black-Tie Sand Frolickers

Building sandcastles in a satin gown. Boogie boarding in a tuxedo. Sunbathing in a top hat. Confused? If so, you can probably relate to the unsuspecting Coney Island beachgoers who witnessed this year's Black Tie Beach Day.

Improv Everywhere coordinated the snazzy sand 'n surf soire. Hundreds of participants dressed up fairytale ball-style and hit the beach for a sunny Saturday afternoon filled with typical seaside activities.

The professional pranksters pulled off the stunt last month and just released a YouTube video of the shenanigans that show the hilariously confused reactions at the event.
