Metadish, Fresh from NYC

The plan?  Wait for a big January snow and then gather together more than 2,473 people in Prospect Park and have the world’s biggest snowball fight.  We are so totally there.

A Cobble Hill chemist is organizing what could be the world’s biggest
snowball fight - and he’s aiming for Prospect Park as the battleground.

Jonathan Rosen has already rounded up an estimated 500 snow hurlers in
his quest to break an existing Guinness world record, set three years
ago when 2,473 winter warriors crowded a Swiss ski resort.

"There’s something very inner child about a snowball fight," said
Rosen, 31, a Queens native who dodged plenty of snowballs as a college
student in Buffalo.

Since posting Craigslist.com notices earlier this month, interest has
snowballed, mostly from New Yorkers promising to bring friends, said
Rosen. He hopes more listings, plus an upcoming Web site will draw
thousands more.

Man, you can really use Craigslist for eveyrthing.  We will definitely be there just for the chance to see thousands of people hurling snowballs.  That’s definitely a once-in-a-lifetime event.
