We’re tracking reports of a couple different snowball fights prepared for Saturday in the wake of what will be a second historic storm in a year! We’ve seen a Facebook invite for a Snowball Event on the Ellipse. Maybe the President will come out and throw the first snowball? Yeah, I didn’t think so either. There’s another snowball event put on by the NAKID Kickball league scheduled for 3pm by the Smithsonian Metro station, which I think is a great place to have a snowball fight (Metro accessible? Brilliant!)
Amongst our Twitterati, folks are also calling for a second snowball fight at 14th and U Street, this time without the gun-toting off-duty detective (Stay home, Baylor!) as well as a fight on Logan Circle. Watch this space for additional snowball fights, and add others as you hear about them in the comments!
I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
What ended up happening to Baylor?
Ironically, WashPo via WTOP has this report: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/crime-scene/theola-labbe-debose/lanier-on-snowball-cop-investi.html?hpid=newswell. “…Lanier said that the internal investigation into the detective who pulled his weapon during a snowball fight last month was “complete” but she had not yet seen the results.”
Oh yea. The NAKID one is going to be awesome!
Put them on the map!

Don’t worry guys, the ellipse is park police property, MPD won’t be responding? Although, Secret Service is close by and might think those snow balls are a threat to the president so keep those snowballs on the southern end and away from the vista!
