281 Stopped Pick-Pocket: Surrounded By Pick-Pockets in Barcelona!

Editor's Note: This is your 30th known stop in Barcelona. Phil was wearing the Business Traveler Line when the pick-pocket attempt was made, as he has both our pants and shorts from this style.

Dear Clothing Arts,

I was surrounded by pickpockets on the Barcelona subway two days ago. My wife saw one going for a zipper on the bag I was carrying and warned me. A second member of the group tried to confuse us by asking if we were exiting while at the same time actively trying to block my exit path from the train. There was lots of bumping as I barely made it out the door, and I think without the double front pocket, they would snatched my wallet.
