World's Largest Water Balloon Fight


So remember water balloon fights when you were a kid? You spend what seems like HOOOUUURSS filling up a few balloons, you throw them at your friends (or attempt to while mostly missing...) and running around the yard. You’re barely event wet and all your hard work is over in about a minute. 

Well when it comes to the world’s LARGEST water balloon fight it’s nothing like you remember from your childhood days. Try 11,622 people and a whopping 236,484 water balloons! Unreal. 

I’ve had the pleasure of helping a ministry (CSF) on the University of Kentucky’s campus out with this event for the past 5 years! And each year it’s been a huge success!! Sometimes stealing the title away from other organizations (like Microsoft) and sometimes just breaking a breaking their own record. 

It’s always fun and exciting to be a part of an official Genesis record! Plus the fight is an incredible thing to be a part of and to watch. So much work goes into it but it is always worth it. 

Check out the official video for this years fight! 


Here are so pics I snapped that night.
