Huge Lightsaber Battle Breaks Out In New York City (video)
This week a huge Lightsaber battle took place between good and evil
in New York’s Washington Square Park on September 24, 2011. Where nearly
1,000 people battled it out in what must be one of the biggest
Lightsaber battles ever.
The event was organised by Kevin Bracken and people made a great effort by dressing up as as Jedi Masters, Sith Lords and even the odd zombie for the event. From the videos after the jump it looks like everyone who attended had a great time.
Kevin Bracken explains to the Gothamist website :
"Last night’s lightsaber battle was phenomenal! 500 lightsabers
were reserved in advance, and easily 1000 people showed up. I am happy
we can put on big family-friendly events; so many parents and kids last
night. The Arch in the park made for an epic backdrop, and my favorite
moment of the night was setting up an epic Braveheart-style skirmish
with deafening cheers from each side.”
