International Pillow Fight Day comes to Pershing Square

Saturday, April 3rd is International Pillow Fight Day! Yes, there’s such a thing.  And while pillow fights historically are the territory of childhood, this one’s for all ages.  We don’t suggest involving your really little ones in this public pillow fight, but a spectator spot along the sidelines is an experience they won’t soon forget, if nothing else than for the sheer shock value (what? big people are hitting each other with pillows and laughing?)  While you’re watching, know that cities across the world are participating in the exact same activity.

Think you and your teens are ready to participate? Here are the rules:

Rules:
1. “Don’t talk about [Pillow] Fight Club!” (especially to news media and civic authories)
2. Don’t be in location until the exact minute. (set your watches)
3. Hide your pillows.
4. Rush in screaming “PILLOW FIIIIIIGHT!!!!!”
5. After 15mins of excruciating fun, leave.
6. Stay off the road and sidewalk. (don’t make this a police issue)
7. Do NOT hit anyone with out a pillow! (this includes but is not limited to people with cameras, bystanders, civic authorities, cars, use common sense!!)
8. “If this is your first [time] at [Pillow] Fight Club, you have to fight.”
