Naked man arrested at Planet Fitness thought it was 'judgment-free zone,' police say

A Massachusetts man was arrested after police said he stripped down inside a Planet Fitness in Plaistow.

Police said Eric Stagno, 34, of Haverhill, Massachusetts, walked into the gym and removed his clothing. He walked back and forth a couple times before settling in on the yoga mats.

When officers arrived, they found him completely nude in a "yoga-type position."

"Well I just moved out here, so this is a 'Live Free or Die' state, so anything's free," gym member Doug Wilson said.

"To me, it's like, 'What did you smoke before you came to the gym?'" gym member Kat Lancaster said. "No, I don't think you should be at the gym naked."

Stagno, who is not a member of the gym, was arrested without incident and was charged with indecent exposure/lewdness and disorderly conduct.

"That's not right at all. Why would you do that? People are uncomfortable. Make you uncomfortable. That's weird," gym member Tony Nachef said.

Police said the only statement Stagno made was that he thought Planet Fitness was a “judgment-free zone," apparently referencing the chain’s slogan.

"It's a judgment-free zone, right? That's what he said, right?" gym member April Story said.

Stagno was released on a $1,000 personal recognizance bail and is scheduled for arraignment on Sept. 21.

good . Planet Fitness should use this in an ad. They want to be tolerant, nudists have to exercise, too. PS. Burn that yoga mat.

True that. He should have gone to a Planet Fitness in New Hampshire, right?

Reminds me of the scene in Porkies where Mrs. Ballbreaker was asked to identify the offending "appendage"...

OK, who wants to use those mats next?

There was a city in CA that went all naked a few years back. It was rescinded WEEKS later when no one wanted to sit on a restaurant bar stool or bus seat after some fat, hairy ass was on it.

The guy is from Haverhill, MA, but Plaistow is in NH. Not a place that the type of people who should be nude in public tend to reside.

The state is correct.

The man is from Massachusetts but Plaistow is in New Hampshire, the “Live Free or Die” state.

I gotta go with the naked guy here.

Just as long as the naked guy didn’t set off the “Lunk Alarm” who are they to judge? Isn’t this the natural conclusion of all such enlightened liberal thought?
