Spooky 
A band of young Ukrainian students found an unusual way to commemorate the death of one of their countries most brilliant surgeons, a doctor Pirogov, who apparently, revolutionized national medicine. They organized a funeral commemorative dinner in one of Kiev’s subway trains inviting everyone to commemorate the carrier and accomplishments of their hero.
As you can see from these photos, the food was pretty scarce but vodka and carton-box wine were abundant. Now that’s good eating!

I’m from USSR (former) lived in Ukraine and Russia. These students simple lacks the reason to drink some vodka and have a party… Pirogov, Sechenov or anyone else could be the reason of having such a party. True reason is having enought money to buy something to drink and “zakuska” and wish to gain some ill-fame. Real students call these ones – “otmorozki”… so they really are!
Dear Spooky! You mixed up! They commemorated Prigov, the poet, not Pirogov, the Surgeon!
yes, and these guys were from Russia. they just repeated in Kiev the performance previously made in Moscow. Prigov became Pirogov due to misinterpretation of drunk spectators. But this is a natural performance variation, nothing lost)))
…the name Pirogov appeared instead of the unpronounceable name of the other recently died transplant surgeon, father of world-famous monkey brain transplant. This is one of the most commercially successful know-how surgeries performed on the West by russian magic hands, ssecond only to Fedorov’s refraction corrections.
Students my ass
)) “Pirogov”

Dude, no offense but you have no idea how stupid this sounds
