Pastafarian in Brno

Lukáš Nový, who lives in Brno and is the chairman of the South Moravian regional branch of the Czech Pirate Party, recently made international headlines for becoming the first person in the Czech Republic to be photographed for his ID while wearing a kitchen strainer on his head as a "religious" head covering. Another article points out that an Austrian man has already been photographed by The Man for his ID while wearing the same, but that in Poland, it has only been attempted unsuccessfully.

One of the interesting details about this case is in fact the relative little difficulty Nový had while getting the photograph. The rumors circulating around Brno are that he walked in, asked for his new ID, put the plastic strainer on his head, and walked out. The staff of Our Man in Brno will attempt to dig a little deeper into this important story in the next few weeks for further developments.
