The 2011 International Pillow Fight Los Angeles @ Pershing Square Downtown Los Angeles.
Several years ago, we got wind of a flash mob pillow fight happening at the Grove in Los Angeles.
Sadly, security was alerted and the event was shut down before it started, even resulting in some arrests for persistent pillow fighting enthusiasts.
Thankfully, the movement has grown in strength and popularity and held in more of a public forum. Case in point was the 2011 International Pillow Fight held this weekend in downtown Los Angeles.
This event brought out the young, old and the costumed. From Ninjas to Mario brothers to the lone tooth fairy, hundreds of pillow-wielding fighters congregated on the lawn at Pershing Square at 2pm.
From the moment the megaphone horn sounded, the pillow fighters continued to battle until they ran out of steam 45 minutes later, with millions of feathers flying through the air and covered the ground like a down comforter.
Over 100 cities worldwide were scheduled to participate on April 2, in this flash mob event which has gained popularity in the last several years.
