What's with all the shirtless people? We mostly kept our clothes on at our LAN parties.

I can imagine it's just really hot in there with the computers and monitors going.

I feel like aircon wasn't as common back then, especially strong enough to cool all of that

It's more likely it wouldn't be able to handle the number of people + PCs. They are sized for use, and they may be hitting the limit with just the people in there, then add the BTUs coming off all that hardware, and you've got yourself a sauna.
