Saturday was International Pillow Fight Day (who knew?), and DC celebrated with flash mobs in Dupont Circle and on the National Mall. Everyone arrived with pillows concealed in backpacks, bags, and, in one case, a stack of hollowed-out pizza boxes. When two participants got in an “argument,” out came the pillows, and soon everyone was joining in. Pillow fight!
Jessica Sidman covers the people and trends behind D.C.’s food and drink scene. Before joining Washingtonian in July 2016, she was Food Editor and Young & Hungry columnist at Washington City Paper. She is a Colorado native and University of Pennsylvania grad.
