Yesterday I stumbled onto the (annual?!) Pillow Fight in Union Square. I’m pretty sure I got there as it was winding down since the entire square, and crowd, were covered in feathers. I’m not really sure what the point of the whole thing was, but fortunately I had my camera on me.

The feathers were everywhere. They were about a foot deep in some places. Even after I left, they followed me to 3rd avenue.

I didn’t mean to catch these two kissing. You could just see the feathers in their hair really well. And they have the same clown hair which is kind of funny. But that makes it hard to tell if it’s two guys, two girls, or a hetero couple. Only in friggin New York.

They definitely look less clown-like from the front. Kind of a cute hipster-couple-in-training. Check out all the feathers. The stairs were covered.

This guy looks like he might need a bigger pillow.

Glad I wasn’t on clean up duty.

What a random thing. Who was the guy that said, “I have an idea! Let’s have a massive pillow fight in Union Square?” And who were all the people that agreed? Whatever the reason, glad to see New York likes to stay young at heart.
