University of Wisconsin students have a 3000 person snowball fight

As somebody who has lived in the midwest my entire life, I’ve been known to engage in a snowball fight or two. But never in my life could I envision standing across a field and facing several thousand college kids chucking snowballs at me.

Via Cnn iReport…

Thousands of students gathered on Bascom Hill to participate in a snowball fight. The facebook group started only 2 days ago and had over 6000 members as of a few hours ago. Students had shields and water balloon launchers. Two dormitory areas of campus competed against each other. The Lakeshore dorms defeated the Southeast dorms after about an hour and a half of battle.

Shields and water balloon launchers?

See, this is what happens when games like Modern Warfare 2 come out. People start strategically planning for a simple snowball fight.

Instead of studying for finals, kids were drawing out maps of areas and constructing weapons of mass snowball destruction (no need to worry GWB, nothing was found)

Its a wonder how there were no serious injuries after all this. I mean, can you imagine getting drilled in the head from 100 feet away with a water balloon launcher.

Let’s just hope for these sakes, there was a ton of boozing involved. Cause as we all know, nothing really counts when you have a few beers in you…..(that is until the next day when you wake up to some disease infested chick you met at the bar who gave you crabs. That definitely counts.)

And as epic as this snowball fight was, I’d still pales in comparison to that one on the Cosby Show. Easily one of the best scenes ever
