Girls Fighting With Pillows

In January 2007, Reuters reported that a Pillow Fight League was operating in bars in Toronto. Pre-selected female "fighters" with stage personalities are paid small amounts to stage regular, unscripted fights. The rules call for "no lewd behavior, and moves such as leg drops or submission holds are allowed as long as a pillow is used".
Students at Columbia University have incorporated a Spring Pillow Fight into the spring semester version of their bi-annual primal scream tradition. Students run into the center of campus screaming and pillow fighting on midnight of the Sunday of finals week as a way to relieve stress.
The Guinness World Record for the largest pillow fight is held by the city of Grand Rapids, Michigan, which was set on September 28, 2008. The event was organized by Rob Bliss who also attempted to break the world record for largest Zombie walk and largest sidewalk chalk event. All these events took place in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
