From the EV Grieve inbox...maybe more of a warning...
New York City's 5th annual, and the world's 3rd annual Pillow Fight Day!
Pillows fly and teddies soar as you converge for a giant urban pillow fight! Swing and whack as you evade pillow-wielding assailants. Bring a soft pillow and wait for the signal. Pillow fight!
Rules: Please follow these guidelines to ensure a safe and fun pillow fight for everybody!
+ Soft, feather-free pillows only!
+ Swing lightly, many people will be swinging at once.
+ Do not swing at people without pillows or with cameras.
+ Remove glasses beforehand!
+ Deposit pillows in donation boxes or take them with you.
+ Pajamas welcome.
Cleanup: Please eliminate your use of feathers. As the pillow fight grows in size, so does the mess. By participating, you are pledging to clean up twice the mess you made :)
This year, pillows will be collected and donated to a midtown no-kill animal shelter to make bedding for rescued dogs and cats.
According to Facebook, "This event has 16,844 confirmed guests." I hope this is worldwide and not just NYC...

Honest to God, officer, I have NO idea how that brick got into my pillow case...
God, I hate crap like this. Remind me not to go.
rock and doris: phony pillow talk...imagine, a thing like that
It was actually a lot of fun. All kinds of people, not nearly as touristy as one would expect. I left after about an hour and a half as the event became a little more mosh pit and some of the younger folk started working out their aggression issues. HUGE crowd of participants and observers.
