Yeah, the weather was really nice - which is unusual, because SF is usually really foggy. :]
But we didn't have as many people as you guys did... so I kind of wish I had been in New York. Plus, the bystanders in San Francisco weren't as interesting, they were kind of like, "Well, things like this happen all the time here..." but it was still very fun. xD

lol the one in NY was on governor's island. i've never even heard of it until the mp3 experiment. the place was pretty boring in general. there were a lot of colonial-looking buildings so i was kind of glad i didn't get there too early. i feel like the bystanders were told to go where i was b/c right when the mp3 said to give a high five to any bystander there were 2 guys that came at the right moment lol. but yeah there were probably over 1000 people and they were all really nice so it made it worthwhile!

demiraph In reply to katherineisart [2008-09-28 15:39:24 +0000 UTC]
I was red! My favorite part was the beginning, with the Thumb War and high-fives with non-participants... and the Epic Battle!
I will definitely be doing this again, this was my first time. I am not from New York so it was a great experience for me!

I only fell out of sync twice. I found out about Improv Everywhere two weeks ago. If I lived closer to the city I would participate more often, but I'm so glad everyone had a good time!

yeah so did you plan to come all the way out to the city or were you there already? oh yeah i was on the improv everywhere website and apparently some guy, a blue shirt, is searching for a red shirt that smiled at him on the subway after the experiment lol that's so cute

demiraph In reply to katherineisart [2008-09-29 02:12:50 +0000 UTC]
My blue shirt friend and I planned to come to the city for the event. We had a very nice day and he survived driving in the city traffic, I'm so proud!
Oh, look in the photos taken by Chad Nicholson. There are photos of three people (a yellow shirt, a red shirt, and a girl with a red shirt and yellow jacket) next to one of those big cannons. The next picture of the five people (two red shirts, a yellow, the red-yellow girl, and a blue shirt) posing with the cannon and the flags: I am the red shirt on the far left!
I hope the blue shirt man finds the red shirt subway girl. It sounds like a fairy tale.

wow yeah congrats! driving to pennsylvania is brutal lol
yeah i found the photo! i actually was looking through the photos before and passed by that one lol. i wish there was a photo of my friend and i. i actually found a photo where i'm in the background but i'm so unnoticeable i don't even know how i found myself it's like "where's waldo?" yeah that would be cute.. there was actually another guy last year who was looking for this girl from the subway and even made a website. he found her, they dated, but i don't think it worked out [link]
