Bayern Munich swap shirts for lederhosen in team photo

Though the annual Oktoberfest was canceled this year due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the Bayern Munich soccer team upheld the tradition as best as they could: by wearing lederhosen and holding pints of beer in their annual team photo.

These bizarre photos were taken as part of a promotion in partnership with the German brewery Paulaner. The German club has a long-term agreement with Paulaner and famously pour the beer on each other during celebrations (usuallty Bundesliga titles). The photo-shoot happens every season ahead of the famous beer festival in Munich, but usually not until September. Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann said, "Where I grew up, you can basically where lederhosen to church every Sunday."
