Because they are so upset seeing minority teens wear their pants down around their knees with their underware pulled up under their ribs.
Another mystery about old guys;
1. They drive corvette convertables
2. They pay $35 to have their bald head "styled" and gelled.
3. They wear more jewelry than Mr. T. Rings on every finger, stupid necklaces, id braclets, etc. You have to wear sunglasses to look at all their "aging-bling."
4. They think shoes and belts only come in "white."
5. They think lime green golf shirts and striped white-green pants that DON'T FIT look really great.
6. They don't understand why cashiers at the grocery store, and waitresses in restaurants, don't want to date them!
I am 54! God HELP ME when I get old!!
I cannot even afford a vette.

People actually shrink as they grow past middle age. Some can shrink
as much as 2 inches (though that is rare).
If they don't buy new pants or start buying smaller pants, your pants
will start to appear way too long. Most people do not want to admit
they are getting shorter.
They may also get profoundly thinner, and have to go through extra
contortions to hold their pants up, since their waist no longer will.

Here is my theory: Men tend to gain weight right in the belly area. If they wear the pants below the belly... they will fall down! Soooo they have to pull them up to the smaller area ABOVE their belly and the belly holds the pants up! Does that make sense?

It was beer...flat out and simple...BEER....See - I have a theory on this and here is how it happened...and it was because...they lost their waist due to <<
Since it was fall time, they didn't notice it until the early spring - but by then it was too late...cause they didn't care...their little fat asses stayed on the couch because "final four time" was there........so...they continued to stay comfortable in the long sweaters....calling for Edith" to bring'em another beer....(it's in over time). Mean while...tiger woods happened on the scene and the senior tour was on...(it was much easier to call for lawn service to handle the outside)....
so............there you go...that's what happened in the mystery of the lost waist....and men from all over now how to wear their pants up to their stomachs to hide their beer bellies......

When you get old, they let you in this secret society that is designed to pi$$ people off. The whole reason for existence is to make you mad and freak you out.
Bermuda shorts and black socks, with sandals. They eat that one up.
Pants up to your chest. LOVE IT.
Farting in public, thats a favorite.
Smelling like mothballs, another classic.
They know. They just want to F-with us. And when we get old we will join the club too. Because if you dont join....THEY KILL YOU.

They have old pants. They have lost tons of weight during the aging process. Also, they have gotten shorter. So, if they're going to wear their favorite pants from 8 years ago, they have to pull 'em up to their chest in order to keep them from dropping to the ground.
It's also to increase their sex appeal.
Not.

Old people move slower, so they wear them high and if they start to slide down they have a greater chance of catching them before they fall off. If they wore them low the window of oppurtunity for reaction would be too small.

Maybe their body has lost it's svelte curves and won't stay up, or maybe they used to be a boxer who doesn't want to get hit below the belt. Maybe they are rebelling against the low hanging pants of the younger guys!

As the body ages, it's shape changes and clothes don't fit like they used too. Older men tend not to re-measure their sizes periodically and will puchase clothing with the size they wore when they were much younger (big mistake).

Nobody cares where old men wear their pants and if you have a pot belly, your pants tend to fall down.
