February 28, 2007: Snow angel record
 It's a new record, in Bismarck, ND. In 2002 IotD covered an early snow angel record, but since then the numbers have snowballed (sorry) to 8,900 participants, and this is what it looks like from above. |

I'm surprised at the predominance of orange clothing - is it a common winter colour in the US - high visibility wear maybe?

If you look closely, the folks in orange are attempting to make, I believe, a cross. That sign of persecution and hatred for and of millions of people and thousands of years. JUST KIDDING!! haha How many of you are seeing red right now? Hehe
Okay, my REAL COMMENT is based on a quote from the linked article: "Edna Arvidson, 84, of Bismarck, said she participated in the city's record-setting event in 2002. 'It's fun and puts us on the map," Arvidson said. "People think there's nothing going on up here.'" You know, I don't think I am going to comment after all. After an eloquent statement like that, I don't believe I need to. Last edited by Saknussem; 02-28-2007 at 09:59 AM. Reason: typo |

Why does this remind me of the South Park episode where the 4 million kids played "My Country Tis Of Thee" on recorders?
