A) Some folks don't have a U-lock. I don't have one that I'd trust in NYC. <shrug>
B) A lot of folks don't lock them around their waist, they just hook the lock through it and let the open lock dangle. It works most of the time.

That would be pretty weird though, especially since those chains are like $50 a piece by themselves. Seems like kind of a waste unless you're going to win.
