Pillow Fight in New York

in photo •  6 years ago  (edited)

My dear steemit friends, I would like to walk you though a really fun event from New York City: Pillow Fight! Yes, this is a real event, happens every year in Washington Square Park, Manhattan!

今天我想向大家介绍一个纽约的传统节日:枕头大战。嗯,是真的。美国人脑洞真大。。。

The path to pillow fight.

一路向北,呃,向枕头大战。

It's a fun and, contradictory, peaceful event :-)

此活动真可谓老少咸宜,其实更像嘉年华。

People are fighting with pillow. If you forgot to bring one, no worries, $5 then you can get one.

战况相当激烈。不记得带枕头?不要紧,没什么是钱买不到的,如果有,那就多花点。。。

People come and go. This is the celebration after a session.

每一段时间有一阵小高潮,走之前大家都把枕头扔向天空,嗯,有点像毕业时大家扔毕业帽。。。

This is one of the events that makes New York City unique: lovely, energetic, and inclusive.

总而言之,这是一个很好玩的活动,也让人情不自禁地爱上纽约这个可爱,充满活力,而又包容的城市。

Thank you for reading. Your comment, upvote, and resteem are my biggest motivation to post :-)

looks interesting event..

yeah really interesting indeed!

It is wonderful to have such event!

Amazing dear
Wherever you go, go with all your heart.

我觉得比那个西红柿大战好,至少不会浪费食物:)

嗯嗯 浪费了好多羽毛

lol..浪費好多羽毛。。
好幽默啊~哈哈

This seems really fun

I wish i had something like this in my town :S

Agreed! me too!
Should be a lot of fun!

Awesome @leftbank, If I have a chance to visit New York, I won't bring my pillow. I will prepare $5 instead, is that right? It is very interesting even and so much fun, I can see it from the puctures. Well, we in Indonesia have such the even too. But it's a little harder. It's a battle one on one. Two people sitting on a palm tree that put across a small river, and then they fight. Who ever fall to the river will lose. It's so fun. Yeah, to long to write I think. And you won't read it anyway . Just like any other high level steemian, they won't reply for low levels comment. So, thanks anyway...

lol absolutely!

Wah the game in Indonesia also sounds amazing!! I don't always reply due to the 20 second reply limit but I do read every single comment!

Greetings,

Wow!the game in Indonesia sounds interesting too!
Hope you can share more~
I love reading related to different cultures,games etc..

Have a great day!

Verry nice post big thumbs up and a resteem from my side for hard work and dedication

Happy party, a happy life.

I did not even know this was a thing. I think it is an awesome idea. It gives people the chance to release some frustration in a light hearted and fun way. It is a good way to curb violent actions that are so very prominent in the news today.

leftbank April 7th 2018 on Saturday,, there will be massive pillow fights around the world festival

good to know that!

Loving this! Long time!

Soo we have to carry our own pillow or we get there ...

Aw this is great. 😀🤣👍

@leftbank you took me into my childhood when I used these soap bubbles haha its really so big and cool and great exhibition. fight pillow awwww its lovely really nice to see but frankly speaking, I have never seen such fight its cool. I want to be there really!

indeed this is the first time ever I attended. really fun!

I enjoyed this travel, but, it a pity, it just in my dream.. Sweet dream not a sweet reality.. I do not know when!!!!! It all about money... if i have enough money i will go there.. I will keep work... thank you @leftbank for sharing. I appreciate it so much..

keep working hard the dream will come true one day!

Learning a new culture is an excited thing to do. Just like reading this.
Actually it has a bit similar with our culture in Aceh , we are fighting each other using pillow in celebrating our independence day. The arena of this tournament is on small bridge (a branch of wood) on a river. It's look simple but believe me it's really hard to do. Need to balance our body. If not you"l fall to the river.
Check out this image !

haha yeah that's really fun! thanks for sharing!

You are welcome @leftbank!
you can check my account sometime, I post about our unique culture there. As you know a new comer need supporters. cheers. waiting for more posts!

有趣,可有效发泄情绪。

相当欢乐

a great show yes. what event festival is held every year ... !!!
definitely exciting and happy to broadcast the show.
greetings @leftbank.. thanks

this is awesome what a great idea! who gets all the pillows lol?

I think pillow fight in a street could be very relaxing and fun to watch. Why not make it like a boxing match with a ring to make it more fun?

Really, so pillow fight is becoming official for there to be an event on pillow fight. I won't be surprised to see it as an event in the Olympics... It would be fun watching the fighters do there thing.

This is amazing

why wasn't I invited ?

haha New York is such an awesome place!

Very Interesting... the world should have more pillow fights rather than wars...

Wow, an awesome event, it's the best way to help relieve stress and make new friend. Thank you for sharing!

Look! Easter is coming to our place!
Everyone gets his spiritual faith.
I wish you peace all over the world,
Spend your days without a sword.
May bright sunshine fill your heart,
May your life’s road be not so hard.
I wish you success, family warmth
And all the goodness on the Earth!

Приближается к нам Пасха, только посмотри!
И каждый обретает духовную веру внутри.
Желаю абсолютного спокойствия всего мира,
Чтоб меча не знала жизнь, была так красива.
Пусть сердце светом наполняется,
А жизненный путь легко открывается.
Удачи желаю, и тепла семье.
Только добра на всей Земле!
