Mods, if this belongs in . . . say, GD, please move it there.  I couldn't quite pin down where to post this.

If the "fighters" were hot chicks that were in thongs, this would have potential . . .  :naughty:

Killing Me Softly: Pillow-Fight Tournaments Grow in Popularity

NEW YORK —  A spectator sport of lightweight proportions is sweeping the globe, but its combatants don't use knives or fists.

They use feathers.

Pillow-fighting is all the rage among urban hipsters these days.

On Monday night about 100 fans showed up at a club in New York City to watch 16 fighters take to the mattresses in a pillow-fight tournament. Pillow warriors with monikers like "Duck Down Decapitator," "Queen of the Gutter" and "The Little Smoker" faced off in one-on-one, head-pummeling battles.

If you've ever been hit in the head with a goose-down-filled pillow, you know that it's like being hit in the head with a full sandbag.  I'm surprised that there haven't been head injuries reported . . .
