Pillow fight in Rome vs Rome marathon this Sunday

Prepare a pillow, preferably small and without a zipper, hide it in your back pack and get to Piazza del Popolo in Rome at 10:50 in Sunday March 22, for a pillow fight.
At 10:55 a whistle will sound for you to pull out your weapon, and at 11am the inferno starts.

This is apparently what has been organised on Facebook in Rome, similar to the Milan pillow fight last June.

As far as we know, however, the event hasn’t been that well organised as apparently the runners of the Rome marathon will passing through the square at exactly that time.

Which means with possibly 6000 pillow fighters and 100,000 marathon runners we can expect to see newspaper headlines such as: “Rome marathon stopped by pillow fight”…
