Has anyone ever participated in a FLASHMOB?
I've been looking at vids on you tube and was wondering if any of you out there have participated in the silliness. It actually looks like fun...

Participated? No...
...but I did see one on Law & Order or CSI being investigated because one of the participates was murdered.......
But they do look like fun. I don't have the time, I'm busy catching up on my murder/cop/science/law/mystery shows.
lol

6) Some girls pole dance on the poles, which is very unsanitary, but also very fun to watch. The last two cars on the train basically become a pimped out moving club. Picking up new clubbers with each stop, and also people who were just expecting to catch a train unexpectedly join the party, and usually (if they aren't square) decided to blow off their previous plans and ride the party train to the end of the line.

 cool...

IT WAS FUN!!
So here are pictures from the official website. I took about 350 pictures and alot of them are the same as the ones posted on this website.
http://www.pillowfight.info/2008sfpillowfight/
Some you tube footage of the carnage.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMyg-LaH9Ec
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0whh6mn3oj0<---this has pre-fight footage
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mRQ3HGtmhg
My personal take, the little kids were the best.  It was SO MUCH FUN! I laughed the entire 2 hours I stayed. Even though the rules stated:
Don't hit people with cameras--yeah right. I got hit on the butt a few times. No worries. There was so much down on the ground and in the air, it looked like it was snowing and yes, people made snow angels. Next year, I will bring a pillow

So a friend of mine new to the SF area was unable to make this so-called pillow fight. Boo! I was looking forward to his take on it all. Sounds likes fun. I wouldn't put myself in the middle of it though. I'd be on the sidelines.

I used to think that too but the fun is infectious. If I didnt have a camera with me, I would have been swiping at people too. I will say the "hardcore fighters" were in the center and everyone else was on the outside of the circle. A lot of people tossed their pillows so if you came without a pillow, you could grab one off the ground OR you could grab a pillow case and fill it with the down that was on the ground.

I actually have participated in one. It was on a smaller scale, but yes. =)
It was on my campus. We have a really large intersection and during one of the crossing points, around 70 of us darted from everywhere and had a pillow fight in the middle. It was a lot of fun.
I hope they plan more coming up! I would do it but I don't have the time.
