Rule number 4 sucks!

We should have a rule number 7. Hit everyone that is a spectator! It seems that more poeple come to watch than to participate. Are the rents still that high in frisco that they unable to get a pillow? Are they saving up or it for Burning Man?

After 5 minutes of pillow on pillow we should suprise the spectators, but that will never happen.

I do love the fact that this a LEAVE A TRACE EVENT!

ive been to both preceeding years of this event, and i had an amazing time at each. i like the re-directed energy of this whole ‘valentines’ nonsense. kudos to the man, my first year, who went ’round dressed as a kissing booth.

while being a leave a trace event is amazing, i like that its never been dispursed – which im always surprised by. we got dispursed burning trees on ocean beach, but NOT creating a polyfill snowstorm? amazing. i love this game. see you all there!

(And please stick around to help clean up after wards so they DON’T start busting us. The fact that I haven’t seen a single cop there is amazing – let’s keep it that way!)

@rob If you think Pillow Fight Club is a “leave a trace” event, it’s only because you haven’t stayed around long enough after previous PFC’s to see the extensive clean up people do. Being respectful and responsible freaks is what ensures that SF remains a city in which we can conjure up such incredible temporary autonomous zones in the future.

Should be a good time, If I don’t get to speak to any of you tonight don’t be offended if my pillow says “Hello” first!
