An army of Spartan warriors descended upon London with a mission in mind.

Clad in just leather pants and capes, they brandished their spears to the bemusement of commuters in London’s metro. Some of the Spartan men even jumped on board to hitch a ride, sitting down with commuters on the way to work.

Thankfully, they were not there to wage war with Londoners. Instead they were called upon to promote the DVD release of 300: Rise of an Empire.
