Spokane Record Attempt 2008: Postmortem

May 13, 2008 2 Comments

Unsurprisingly, the well-meaning mobsters from NC failed to set the world record for largest water balloon fight Bloomsday Sunday. At around 3:15 a dwindling crowd of mostly high school students were already starting to dry off in the pre-summertime heat.

Spovangelist diagnoses this minor disappointment as a simple case of “Too Little Too Late”.

The organizers were uncertain of their commitment up until a few weeks before the big day. A lack of event planning and fund raising experience naturally made things more hectic, and the absence of a business sponsor and rejection from the Lilac Bloomsday Association pretty much sank the ship this year. But these kids are to be commended for their admirable effort, rumor has it they will try again in July.
