I went in 2007. It's the sort of event you only have to see once. Like the running of the bulls, I imagine, except with fewer life-threatening injuries.

But did they clean up the feathers after they were done, or leave it for someone else to do?

it happens every year. There is also a bubble blowing event too.

In San Francisco they do it on Valentine's Day in Justin Herman Plaza. What a great way to "celebrate" the day even if you're single.

They're called "flash mobs". This event/"mission" was probably done by a group called improv everywhere. Join the mailing list!

wow how exciting! I definitely live in a boring area. NOTHING fun ever happens in LA! Even the Earthquakes have now moved the Midwest! I need to move! I want to go to the next Pillow Fight!
