Largest Snowball Fight
Seattle Center | More info: http://www.snow.co/
January 12th, 2012
Noon: Registration begins

4:30pm: Snow Fort and Snow Castle winners announced
5:00pm: World’s largest snowball fight
6:00pm: Pub crawl and war stories
Embrace the inner child in all of us
Snow Days are a magical time when the world’s expectations and burdens suddenly come to a halt. The pace of life slows down, the responsibilities of a habitual day change; nature speaks up and says, “Hey! Don’t forget who’s in charge.” While we can’t control Mother Nature, we can orchestrate a festival built around the attitudes and merriment of a Snow Day.
After a series of hilarious phone calls, we’ve finally figured out how to transport 162,000 lbs. of snow from the mountain passes into Seattle Center. Local organizations will use the snow to build forts and castles in an epic competition against snow kings and queens.
Minutes after the most majestic snow fort is crowned, six thousand people will descend upon the snow fort village in an attempt to break the record for the World’s Largest Snowball Fight (officially held by the Republic of Korea at 5,387 participants). But snow day is about much more than just breaking a world record. It’s an opportunity to express our Northwest pride and love by embracing the inner child in all of us. ALL PROCEEDS BENEFIT THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS OF KING COUNTY. BOO-YEA!
January 12th – 100% chance of snow.
RESERVE NOW
With a fort you have the ability to insulate yourself (somewhat) from the flurry. But it will cost you. Right now the fort building is limited to GROUPS ONLY (this is a fundraiser). Reserve a spot for your company or group by emailing forts@snow.co.

-————————————-————————————
QWTWBFAs (Questions we think will become frequently asked)
How are you planning on creating a snow day? What if there’s no snow?
All snow will be trucked in from the local mountain passes (We promised 100% chance of snow). If it does snow, even better.
What is the price?
The cost is $25/person. Be a kid for a day, help a kid for life… yeah it’s a fundraiser.
What if I want to build a snow fort but don’t have a group or enough money?
You can always try to build a fort during the fight or ask one of the teams during the competition if you can help. Make a significant contribution and you may have just found yourself a job! (Or a hot date).
My cousin is from Delaware, can he come?
Yes. Please. We must unite as a country in order to beat the Koreans. Okay Gangnam, take the record for the most viral video in the world but we’re going to own the world’s largest snowball fight. Tell your cousin to check out Maxwell Hotel. They’re a classy hotel offering rooms to Snow Day participants for only $99/night (more than 25% off regular prices!). www.themaxwellhotel.com – use the promo code “SNOWBALL” and be prepared to show your event ticket at check in.
Am I going to get hurt?
As with any athletic activity, there is always the chance that someone might get hurt. All participants must be above the ages of 18. There is a disclaimer and liability waiver that must be filled out before entering the plaza. Eye protection is required during the snowball fight. Make sure to bring your own ski, snowboard or swimming goggles or you won’t be able to participate.
When and where is this epic snow competition going down?
Saturday January 12th, 2013 at Center Square in Seattle Center 305 Harrison Street Seattle, WA 98109
Where do I park?
There are multiple options. Right in front of Memorial Stadium is a small paid parking lot; there are also multiple parking garages for Seattle Center. For complete list and pricing, click here. Since we are also an eco-friendly centric city we also recommend taking King County Metro, biking, walking…heck run there if you want!
Will there be beverages and food at the event?
Warm beverages like hot chocolate and coffee will be available but if you need something a little stronger we suggest the Center House. They’ve recently been granted a liquor license and will be serving Whiskey Sweaters along with other “warming beverages.” The Center House also has a wide assortment of quick food and dining options. But don’t forget to save room for the Snow Day Pub Crawl.
What if I want to donate more to Boys & Girls Clubs of King County?
Awesome! You can give online, here.
Who currently holds the world record largest snow ball fight?
Great question. According to Guinness World Records, Taebaek City in the Republic of Korea (South Korea) holds the record set on January 22, 2010 with 5,387 participants. The entire town where it took place has only 50,000 residents. Come on Seattle, we got this!
Here is a video of the current world record snowball fight. Come on, we can beat this!

This sounds like so much fun!
Because I grew up in Seattle and have 11 and 10 year old boys who are snow ball fighting machines that would love to be in the world records books that they read !
Proceeds go to the to the Boys and Girls Club #1…a great club for kids to have fun, learn,it was a great and positive experience for my son bowling, swimming, etc. Being part of the Guiness World Record #2. FUN!! in Seattle #3. Three good reasons!
My 9-year-old daughter was born in Hawaii, and she is just obsessed with snow! My husband grew up in Idaho and he misses snow. It would be great if we can get tickets to “World’s Largest Snowball Fight”!! :-)
This would be a great beginning of a new year! SNOWBALL FIGHT!
Snow. It makes me smile.
Please give me tix. I will love
you for ever more.
would love to go back to childhood memories, but this time with more awesome people.
Reasons why I deserve tickets to Snow Day:
1) I spent many years attending the Boys and Girls Club of the Kenai Peninsula (in ALASKA), and later working my first job in their kitchen when I was 14. I was also chosen as “Youth of the Year” one of those years
2)My fiance has been SUPER excited about this, but we didn’t guess it might sell out (aren’t we going for the most people possible?), and she is SUPER bummed that it is.
3)We live a few blocks away, so we will be walking to the event instead of causing more traffic and pollution by driving
4) My fiance and I are both from Alaska, so our snowball fight skills equal 2 or 3 times that of the average Seattlite (no offense). I’m sure if you passed this along to the people from Guinness that would take that into account in their tally of the total number of people there, thereby increasing our odds of setting the record. It’s science.
It’s my buddy’s birthday that day, he’s from Alaska and misses the snow. As a Michigander I miss it too. It’d be the best birthday present ever if we could go celebrate in the snow!
I am a photographer with a different perspective. I would love the chance to take artistic, high end, fun photographs of the day. So many people will be having so much fun and I want to be sure that it is captured in the best way possible. Seattle is an amazing city, I am so proud to be a part of it!
Well yep. This sounds epic. I would love to be a part of breaking a world record, and just stocked up on warm winter clothing so I’m set :)
My kids have never been to Seattle or really played in snow before because we just moved here from Tennessee. Would love to take them.
This sounds FANTASTIC!
This sounds so cool!!
I would love to attend because getting this record will only make Seattle that much better! I have participated in the pillow fight twice, and have a goal to attend all the funny festivals and events that this awesome city has. So I hope to attend in order to see Seattle at its best!
For once my family and i would like to be apart of something cool!
I’d like to attend on this for me and my sisters to try. Grew up in the Philippines with no snow at all so this will be a chance for us to try and be part of history too :)
I want to make it there!
This would be a great thing to be a part of. I have never been in any attempt for a world record before. This would be sweet!
I would love to take my son to this
Coolest idea EVER! Wanna go so bad!!!!! :D
Sounds amazing, I’d love to attend!
My family and I just moved from Hawaii and have not had a winter in 4yrs. We would love to be a part of this event.
We would love to attend to be a part of something big, historic, and fun! We don’t have the extra money to buy tickets so we would love to win some!
I’d love to be there. And I was the stuntman for Will Farrell in the movie Elf during the snowball fight scene so I would definitely be an asset!
Yes We need To start a new Seattle Tradition To get over the Gloom, Freezing and Dampness of January. I’ll Be there and free tickets and Pub crawl would be better.
I would love to go with my kids! It would be the best expierience ever!!
I would like to attend this because I love this city, and being originally from Alaska, this is the closest I’ll ever get to the epic snowball wars of my young childhood. It would also be great to share this experience with my girlfriend and her son. :)
this sounds like a blast. i would love to go to this because i’ve never been part of anything big,or helped break a world record.
We will be in Seattle that weekend for a great concert from Seattle’s own WindowPane. Winning these tickets would make a great memory for a fun filled Seattle weekend to always remember. Happy New Year Everyone 2013
I want to go play in the snow!! It’ll be a nice way to release some aggression and ease the full time student stresses! I’m going if I win or not. Fun!
This would be so awesome
Sounds awesome.. count me in
Great idea Seattle!
Well I missed the tomato battle 2 years running due to work, so I feel as though I gotta go to this :) 60 hours a week at work…I owe this to myself
I’m from Alaska and haven’t seen a decent snowfall since I lived there. I’d love to make a snow fort!
Would love to join in on this! Have not had a good snowball fight since I was a wee kid.
Snow?! I love playing in the snow!! Seattle?! I love Seattle!! It’s a match made in heaven. :)
My 12 year old son has crohns disease and is finally feeling better from iv treatments. Last year he was too sick to enjoy winter fun. I’d love him to get to make up for it! !!!!!
Omg omg omg!!!!!!! Me please
Sounds amazing
I would love to be a part of a world record! how many people can honestly say that? After the event, 6000 fellow Washingtonians! that’s who! I love Seattle, and I think its amazing that we get this chance at a world record.
This is fabulous! What a wonderful way to spend my son’s birthday weekend. Both my kids are jazzed!
I would love to attend this event because, well face it, what’s better than snow? I’m a college student who loves the winter season and loves Seattle. This is like a dream come true!
SNOW!! It would be fun to participate in a bit of history making while playing in the snow with my kids!! :)
I would love an excuse to throw things at my boyfriend! Hahaha
With having a two toddlers this would be such a great way to blow off steam! Please pick us. What a blessing!
I love snow! My boyfriend always complains how much I like it when it snows, and Id love to be a part of the biggest snowball fight! :D
That’s my birthday!
I am going to love this event! Pick me for free tickets!!!!
Finding a great way to start of a new year of adventure in a beautiful city, who wouldn’t want to participate. Warming up my throwing arm now.
Ive lived in Seattle all my life, its not too often we see snow. When it does snow, its like a diffrent magical world. Im a full time college student, stuggeling on my own. So I dont have much $ to enjoy things like these. Seattle needs to beat this record & id love to be apart of it!
As a native New Yorker, I can say that this is one of the things that I miss the most about the East coast. A good snow bank is like the winter’s version of a sunny, white sand beach. I would love the opportunity to romp in the snow once again, especially in a place as lively as Seattle. Plus, I have a Canadian friend with whom I have a “snow rivalry” since we were born in some of the coldest places on this continent. What better place to celebrate the snow (and settle our rivalry, in a friendly manner of course) than here!
My oldest daughter has never had a snowball fight before, and the youngest has never even seen snow! This would be so much fun for them!
Yes, I would Love to be a part of this snowball fight !!! :)
Participants must be 18 and older
Damnit Derek, I’m a coal miner, not a professional film or television actor.
Otherwise
SNOWBALL FIGHT! SEATTLE! GUINESS WORLD RECORD!!!
and benefits the BOYS and GIRLS CLUBS in King County!
What more could my inner child ask for???!!!
This sounds so legendary!
I would love to attend this! It sounds like so much fun and I was sad to not be able to see any snow so far this year. Snowball fights just bring magic to the season. :)
I’ve been living in seattle for over 30 years and would like to be part of Seattle history. I would also like to take my boys with me. I got much love for my city.
I’m here in Seattle to help my best friend fight pancreatic cancer. What an awesome day it would be for her to play and be a part of the worlds largest snowball fight!!
Hell yeah,count me in!
Seriously? Snowballs? A shot at a world record!? That is something I need to be a part of!!
I just moved back to Seattle (my home city) after being stuck in Wisconsin for four years. It is so meaningful for me to be back in my beautiful city and I would love to be a part of something that makes our city even cooler than it already is! :)
This is one of the coolest things to come to Seattle, the community, and the connections that will be made from this will last forever. And its for a GREAT cause! :)
It would be the 1st time I saw so much snow since the blizzard of 1996? In Allentown PA.
I would love to go! My boyfriend absolutely loves the snow, and even as a 20-year-old he still acts like a little kid in it. This would be a blast! We would definitely come from Ellensburg for this.
It is 2 days after our anniversary and I can’t think of a better place
to spend it and what fun it wouls be
What an amazing event to be a part of right here in Seattle! We’re new to WA but we are definitely enjoying each nee experience here. :-)
Snow ball fight+beer+music= AWESOMENESS!!! Who wouldn’t want to attend!!! :c)
January 12th happens to be my Birthday! I’d love to participate with my sister before she leaves for training for the military in late Jan. :D
I love the snow!
Go Team Seattle! <3
Because it would be effin awesome….
I would love to go I love the snow and have lived in Seattle my whole life it would be great to break the record and be a part of history
What a fun thing!!!! We would LOVE to come, too!!!!
I want to play!
This sounds so great! :)
I’m moving to South Korea in February to teach English there for a year–this is the most perfect timing! I can go brag to them afterward that we broke their record. :P Please, I’d love to win tickets!!
I wanna win some tickets!
Um, heck yes we want to attend! Anything that involves snow, thousands of people, and protective eyewear must be epically awesome!
Fun fun fun!!!
Its mom’s birthday on the 12th it would be cool to take her to the worlds largest snow ball fight and be part of a world record for her birthday.
Moved to the Rainy City 4 years ago, and miss our snow! Sounds like a blast!!
I would love to go because me and my friends would wreak complete havoc on everybody. I got an arm like Buddy the Elf and I will have no mercy!
This is a phenomenal idea. I hope everyone appreciates the awesome involved in this.
This event is 2 days after me and my boyfriends 2yr anniversary. we can’t spend the weekend in a cabin in the snow… Instead, on our anniversary we get to sit in a hospital and find out wether or not I have cancer. It would be nice to be able to have an epic awesome snowball fights with friends anyway! :)
My girlfriend grew up in California and has only been in snow a few times. This event would make her season!
Ahhhh, this sounds so awesome!! We live a few hours away from Seattle and this would be great. How many times do you get to help make a world record?!?! I would love to go be a part of this and hit some people with snowballs.
I would love to hit people with snowy balls for my bachelorette party
Whats a better way to spend the new year? I want in on this.
I would like to go because I can build a mean snow fort! :)
This sounds like a blast. Would love to be able to attend!!!
I’m game, this sounds totally epic.
This sounds EPIC! I would die to be a part of such an awesome event in Seattle. Especially since I will shortly after be moving and what I great memory to take with me! :)
Not only may it be the only chance to see snow this year in the city but, I have tons of pent up energy to unleash on willing participants….unleash the beast!!!
I live for Seattle, my wife lives for snow!! What a great way to bring both of these two together to be in a record breaking snowball fight in Seattle!! WOOHOO, thanks to KCB&GC for bringing this great event a real happening. YOu people are the creativists!! (Is that even a word?)
I’m a liability lawyer and I just can’t wait for this event. In fact, I’m so excited about it, that I’ve already hired 40 Mexicans to hand out my business card to all the injury victims. Do you know what snow does when it gets warm? It gets hard and icy, and when it hits people in the head, it almost always causes nasty gashes. I really can’t think of a better way to injure so many people in such a short period of time.
This is going to be EPIC!
We would love to win tickets. Two kids one is 34 and one is 9! Snow!!!! Will there be other activities if we cant get tickets?
This is amazing!!! I would love to be a part of this!
This will be an amazing event to show my kids what its really like to participate in something special other then online video games. Im all for it:-)
I want to go because this sounds like fun, I’ve never really been in a big snowball fight (aside from a sparse few with neighbor kids or siblings). Plus I think it’s hilarious how your FAQs say “We must unite as a country in order to beat the Koreans”. If only world wars could be reduced to stuff as entertaining and funny as this!
I have been sick every holiday this season so it would be great to be able to do *something* that feels like Winter! I will be fine by then! :) Promise!
Ridiculously Awesome! I would love to win this!
Because of my love of snow! Because of my love of winter! Because of my love of Seattle! I can’t wait for this event!
I think this such a wonderful event!!! I have always loved the snow but being a rural carrier for the post office can make you not like it so much sometimes. I would love to be able to play in the snow and not worry about driving in it. :)
Oops!! this is such a wonderful event. See. I need a snow break.
As an archivist-in-training, it sure would be nice to be a part of history for once instead of just processing it!
OMG I WANT TICKETS!!!
I Have Lived In The Seattle-Tacoma Area For 45 Years, My Birthday Is On The 24th Of January, What A Great-Birthday Gift It Would Be!!! Plus I Broke My Hand In An Accident The Week Of ThanksGiving, I Can’t Think Of A Greater Therapy Than Throwing Snow-Balls All-Day!!!
since mother nature doesn’t offer us much in the way of the powdered precipitation in the emerald city i think it is only fair that we bring some in for this grand endeavour!
I grew up in Massachusetts, I want to see the forts everyone that are being built and hope fully build one. Ikniow a young artist that would delight in this. thank you so much for the chance to win.
gonna be ridiculously awesome! let’s win some tickets and snow bomb the Koreans!
I’d love to be part of something which sets a new record! I am a flight attendant so I don’t get many days off to drive to the snow… This is so exciting, as I’ve only been in Seattle area for a little over two years, and would love to be able to say I helped to make this event a huge record Seattle can be proud of!!!
This looks so fun! And who wouldn’t want to be a part of a Guinness World Record?! :)
snow day baby
I want to win tickets to this as my group of friends has already put together a plan on over 25 of us meeting up and heading down together. I love playing in the snow and want to help set a record in Seattle which is my hometown.
I would LOVE to win tickets to this! I think will be making history and have already sent the event to all of my friends! Thanks for offering this as a contest and donating to a great cause.
I believe I should win these tickets because I want to be apart of history of being apart of A record breaking event in Seatown. I think that this would be so mych fun and this could even make up for me having to miss the Seahawks vs 49ers game. This would be an awesome way to start my new year. Pick me!
So many good replies above and hopes for the free tickets, they all deserve them. I’m a NW native who adores our city and all the incredible community events that are available to us. Specially these days as we recover from the recession, I am “dating on a shoestring” and am always on the look out for fun things to do with friends and with my date so we don’t feel left out. I procrastinated too long to get the Living Social deal which I’m bummed about, $25 per ticket isn’t in the budget at the moment. i haven’t been able to go skiing this year and haven’t gotten to see any snow yet. It would be a blessing even just for one pair of tickets, let alone three pairs!
Will be out visiting from MN, let the expert show you how it’s done.
No yellow snow please.
Ewwww haha
Looks like it would be fun to go to. And while I know the ticket price is for a good cause, the price to take your kids as a single parent is way too much. Should have have varying prices. That way you be able to get more people to come and have a better chance to break the record.
I would absolutely love to participate in this! Regardless if I win tickets or not, I will be going to have fun and support our local community!
GO SEAHAWKS!
I’ve always loved Seattle and being apart of what makes this city so great, and there’s not a chance i’m going to miss a chance to be apart of breaking a world record in my favorite city.
After 20 years in the military my husband has returned to His home state!! I would love to surprise him this amazing opportunity to start our New Year in Washington of with a BANG, POW!!
This will be lots of fun!!!
For Seattle? Yes!
My girlfriend so misses the snow from back home being here in Seattle. Would love to take her for a snow angel and a pint :)
I was snoooow excited to find out about this opportunity! Hahaha! Really though my husband and I both originally grew up in minnesota and would LOVE to spend a day participating in a world record snowball fight! It would definitely be something to write home about! Thanks! :)
OMG!! This would be the greatest, most fun thing EVAH!! Please pick me! Please oh please!! I’ll be so appreciative!
Holy slushball, Batman! This sounds like a ton of fun.
This would be a blast! Practiced throwing snow in the mountains last weekend. i’m ready.
Would love to go and play in the snow. Plus its for a good cause. Who says u have to grow up .
This would be AMAZEBALLS. I spent the past few years living in Florida so I need to feel some snow!
Snow ball fiiiiight! Lets go Seattle! Sounds like so much fun.
Would love to give these to my daughter for her 21st birthday!
This is SO awesome! Love the snow, and would love to go!
I am from Boston and the thing I miss most is getting to play in the snow!
My family loves the snow even though we don’t get much over here in anacortes…but we travel to it. I took my family last winter to mt baker to go sledding and my then four year old son crawled his way up the huge hills, sled down sooo fast snow was covering his face as he was laughing and once he stopped at the bottom he would fall flat on his face..freezing cold and all that work climbing those hills he asked to do it again and again! I know my kids would love this event!
Holy snowballs! This sounds like the hands-down highlight of the winter!!
Oh please please please! I would LOVE and APPRECIATE these tickets. I am a single mom, and am not rich, don’t ever get to spend money on my own happiness. Pluss its 3 tickets not 2 which is SOO much better because It will be less awkward tha going with just one person lol. Its true!
Me and a few friends would love to be kids for a day and raise money for kids we’re in!!!!!!
Let it snow! Snowshoes donned, mittens armed ready for action!
How exciting! I would love to be there! Happy New Year!b
Yes please! This would definitely be a memorable experience to cherish for a very long time. I think that everyone, especially those who are from Washington state should attend this event at least twice. Its a great way to make new friends, possibly see old friends, express your inner child and not feel guilty!
This sounds awesome!
I miss the refreshing walks throught the 3-ft snowfall to town in Vermont during the winter season; putting on warm gloves and a scarf which doubles as a face shield from the frozen air. Since my kids grew up mostly in the Seattle area, I’d like to take them and their Girlfriends to this SNOWBALL FIGHT, and we can share in a winter memory and make history at the same time!
my husband and 5 year old son have never been in a snow ball fight, being Florida expats, what better experience than breaking the world record!
I want to be a part of such a tremendous day!
OMG!!!! i’ll actually be in Washington!!!!!! gyaaaa
I’m definitely will go !
I grew up in Cleveland (yeah ok I’ve heard that one) but my 2 boys are growing up here in Seattle and have no idea how to pack a perfect snowball in order to pellet the mailman or anyone else walking down the street……. We need to win!!!!!
So i can have fun!
I just moved here from the Florida Keys…never made a snowball in my life!
I love this so much who wouldn’t want the chance to be able to be a part of the worlds largest about ball fight and help outa good cause!
Snow!!! I’d love to participate and have more than a few friends also willing. Even if we can’t get a hold of tickets, we’ll be there to watch. That is if anyone ever publishes the time…
Snow! Snow! Snow! How fun is this in the middle of the city. It would be awesome to be a part of and be a kid again if only for a day. Thanks to whomever came up with this brilliant idea!!
I would love to win tickets so my wife and I can join the other lesbian and gay couples that we had our wedding with on December 9th in the festivites. we all thought it would be fun to get together again to celebrate that amazing day with a fun snowball fight. :)
I worked at the Boys and Girls Club for 4 years and would love to support them by pelting snowballs at other innocent humans. I’m also from Maine and really miss the snow, so haul it in!!
Oh…..my……gosh!! Ah! I am so excited!!! I live in Portland, but I will drive to Seattle.
I’ve been so excited about this event I love the snow! Since I was a little girl my family and I have always made a tradition to spend at least a day around the holidays playing as many events as we could think of in the snow, this always included the traditional building of a snowman, the epic snowball fights, and making and sleeping in a four person igloo over night. My family and I have always gone all out when it comes to snow and I feel like it’s so perfect that Seattle is trying to break a snowball record and I would love to have my family and I be a part of it.
I would love to win because I am an Alaskan and am homesick… missing the snow. I grew up having some crazy snowball fights, and believe that being involved with a world record would be amazing!
Seattle, snow, competition, supporting kids, Boys and Girls club, beer, friends, new friends… what’s there not to love? Two things my fiancee and I would love to do to in 2013 – get married and participate in this epic snowball fight and pub crawl!! :)
I would love to win tickets… I have a group of friends going and the tickets sold out as I was trying to purchase. I don’t want to miss the chance to help out on this good cause, as well as rock the snowball fight! I never get the opportunity to just kick back and relax and be a kid for a day, and this would be the perfect way to do it.
I grew up in Seattle and now live Memphis, Tennessee. We sure don’t get snow there! I am in town and leave the 13th. This would be an amazing way to spend my last full day home!! And, plus, my friends are going and now tickets are sold out! Eek!
Just moved to Seattle from the south and would love to be a part of the Guinness world record snowball fight that IS going to happen Saturday!!!!
I miss the random middle-of-the-street snowball fights we started the last time seattle had a massive snow puke
I also wouldn’t mind winning tickets so I could take my girlfriend to this event.
Just moved from Mexico and we don’t get snow there… ever… This sounds like the most epic thing in the world!
My husband and I are parents to a 6 month old. She hates sleeping loves to scream( happy screams), and is a total time hog. When we have time just the two of us we have to do grown up things like pay bills and clean the house. The two of us need a day to be kids again. Plus we love snow. And the money raised is for a great cause!
I’m not a huge fan of snow and I finally found a snow event that I would like! I just heard about it Sunday and made plans to go only to find out it was sold out today. I would love to win tickets to help bring me back to a happy place with snow. XOXO
If we can’t beat South Koreans in Starcraft, let’s at least beat them in snow fight!
I would love to win tickets because my husband and I have a date night Saturday and THIS would be awesome! Way better than the movies.
I just moved to Seattle from Japan. It is great chance to exeperience winter in Seattle. I would like to join this great event!
Please pick me! Tix are SOLD OUT and this is mine and my friends’ ONLY CHANCE to go!
My friend bought her ticket but my husband and I were too late. We would love to join her in the fun. And hopefully pelt her with plenty of snow.
I want to win these tickets to Snow Day, not for myself, but for my best friend. I will be celebrating my 24th birthday at Snow Day and my best friend wasn’t able to get her ticket before they sold out. Please help me ensure my best friend is able to celebrate this day with me!
My favorite part of the snow is the snowball fights! Unfortuntely Seattle does not often get the opportunity to have them without heading to the mountains. I’d love to be a part of a world record, especially one that lets me relive some of my best and rarest childhood memories!
I want to win a ticket SO I CAN MAKE LOVE WITH THE SNOW!! Please, please.. I want to be a part of this WORLD RECORD ATTEMPT!!! It’s a once in a life opportunity for me. (:
I still can’t believe I missed out on the Living Social tickets! I don’t even need the pub crawl part, just the snowball fight part. Pretty please?????? =)
What can I say? I’m completely desperate for tickets. I think this event can be described as strait up magic. One that I would more than love to be a part of. The combination of everything the event includes is so impressive, it would be a shame to miss out. I can’t imagine how great it will feel to be involved in the worlds largest snowball fight all while knowing you donated to the boys and girls of King County. It’s a feeling I really want to be a part of. Thank you to the creators of this awesome event.
Because I promised two of my students at UW Bothell that they could go, but then tickets sold out! They’re international students who have never seen snow!
I really really really really really really really really really really really really really want the tickets. Please. :)
I really need a ticket to this. Just got back from the Doctor’s he told me I have a serious fever and the only prescription is more SNOW!!!
Hello! I’ve just learnt about this event, and you can’t believe how I want to participate! My birthday is coming too, if I win, it’ll be such a fun birthday present for me. Besides, every year I had snow at my birthday (in my home country), I don’t want this one to be passed with no snow… Really want to join!
I need a ticket badly, the top of my bucket list includes drinking, throwing snowballs and setting world records. Hahaha and plus
I was sick for couple days and my doctor prescribed me the only remedy for my fever is more SNOW!!! so please give me one!!! Thank you!! Lololol.
I want to attend this world record event because my friends got tickets and I didn’t… And would like to be there with them!:) Go Hawks!
I my friend, would like to attend for the most noble of causes. It’s seems that I have been bamboozled, for I was incorrectly assuming that an event like this would not sell out. Turns out, I was very wrong. You see, being able to attend this grand snowball fight in seattle center would bring my ancestors honor, as I come from a long line of snow warriors. These brave men and women need their legacy to continue, and I am the last heir to that legacy. It is unfortunate that the other sons and daughters were part of a tragic snow leopard accident, rendering their snowball making hands useless, as now they have fur. It is not only my intention to carry on this great legacy, but also to help the children of king county, who need a great snow warrior. I now entreat you to help me with this undertaking, and help me overcome the errors of my ways, which was not buying a ticket soon enough. Forever greatful I am, may the force be with you all.

I say “sea” you say “hawks”
Sea!
Ok, look, you guys need to understand that without these tickets, my duty to battle and slay the Wampas of planet Hoth can not be fulfilled. How else am I, and my fellow Rebel comrades going to save Luke Skywalker? He needs to be saved! He is the only hope for our galaxy and lives, but right now if I do not have possession of tickets (ability to land on Hoth) the Wampas will tear him limb, from limb and ingest and consume him. And as a Representative of the Rebel Alliance, I cannot stand for that. Please, seattlepipeline.com, your my only hope…
Contributions go towards to Boys and Girls Club, creating history, Snowball fight in Winter in Seattle – best City to be in. Fun fight for a great cause. Would love to be part of this memorable and historic event. Would be pleased and yes, blessed to have the tickets.
I am from the Northeast, and would love to get in on a Northwestern snow experience. I’ve even got special gloves ready for packing snowballs!
This is my ideal day. It has everything I love, and it would be amazing to be a part of a WORLD RECORD! It is a once in a lifetime experience that I want to be a part of. I went to buy my ticket today but it was sold out!
I need tickets so my friends can go with me!
It’s on the Bucket List!! The Guiness Book of World Records? And I’m part of it? WOOHOO!
I’ve been trying to get tickets, but they’re all sold out! Since moving to Seattle, I’ve missed the snow terribly. Snow is what makes winter for me. I even went to Pacific Place mall for their holiday “snow” and tried to convince myself it was just like the real thing… Sadly, it’s not. Anyway, crossing my fingers for a lucky draw!
Proceeds to B&G Club, world record setting, SNOW! These are the things that will allow us to embody the word ‘epic’ for a few hours, to capture the delight and wonder only found on snowy battlefields.
I have been looking at this for a while and I wanted to buy tickets for me and my boyfriend to go, but I didnt get paid in time, and by the time I got paid the tickets were sold out. I would love nothing more than to surprise him with tickets. It would mean the world to me. He works every day because of his job and I finaly got him to take a Saturday off, and now I dont have the tickets I was hoping I would have. Please send us to snow day and make our year. Thanks!
My best friend and I just drove 3,000 MILES to Seattle from San Antonio, Texas this week, and she was so excited when she heard about Snow Day but heartbroken when she found out it was sold out. I’m staying in Seattle to live but she’s going back to Texas soon, and if we win tickets it will be the last thing we do together for a long time. And she really, really wants to hit me with a snowball (which has never happened to me before — no snow in Texas). Please make her snow dreams come true before she has to back to 80-degree winters in Texas!
I would love to participate in this event, it would be an amazing way to start a new year! Planned on buying tickets but pay day came too late.
Because I just tried to buy my tickets and they were sold out!!! :(
Reasons why I deserve tickets to Snow Day:
1) I spent many years attending the Boys and Girls Club of the Kenai Peninsula (in ALASKA), and later working my first job in their kitchen when I was 14. I was also chosen as “Youth of the Year” one of those years
2)My fiance has been SUPER excited about this, but we didn’t guess it might sell out (aren’t we going for the most people possible?), and she is SUPER bummed that it is.
3)We live a few blocks away, so we will be walking to the event instead of causing more traffic and pollution by driving
4) My fiance and I are both from Alaska, so our snowball fight skills equal 2 or 3 times that of the average Seattlite (no offense). I’m sure if you passed this along to the people from Guinness that would take that into account in their tally of the total number of people there, thereby increasing our odds of setting the record. It’s science.
Soooo my roomie’s from Arizona and has only seen snow once before and that one and only time she did, she busted the hotel doors off their hinges, out of pure excitement…TRUE STORY! Our other roomie and I would love to see the inner kid come out in her again. So puhleassse let us annihilate each other, at the world’s largest snowball fight, so she may never care to see snow ever again…in the name of charity, OF COURSE…annnnd to save all future door hinges ;)
I want to snowball fight! Pick me!
My grandmother has Alzheimer’s so she only remembers when she was a kid in seattle and it snowed every winter. I want to send her pictures of snow day to cheer her up and bring back old memories.
After dreaming of a white Christmas for the past three years I am thrilled for the chance to take part in such a FUN not mention, well intentioned event!!!!! Bring on the snowwwwww Seattle :)
As a young Eskimo girl growing up on a frozen island off the northern coast of Alaska, snow was always a big part of my life. I’m named after it, Apun means falling snow and is my traditional Inuit name. I was born on the first day it snowed on the island in 1998. It’s one of the things I miss most about Alaska. I was super bummed out that I waited to long to buy tickets. This is why I want to win!!
Good cause? Snow on my boyfriend’s face? Celebrate my birthday during a rare white Seattle?!?!
hmmm…I can’t decide which is better…how about all of the above!!!
I would love to win tickets to this because it sounds like a great community activity. What fun!
Just missed being able to buy them. Now I’m looking to win them.
My 9 year old son is OBSESSED with his Guinness Book of World Records books, and is always pretending to break is own “World Records” at home. Being apart of this would be the ultimate childhood experience for him, please, please please pick us :)….
My husband and I just returned from a 9 month deployment and are looking for a fun activity for one of our first weekends back. Plus it’s more fun to throw snowballs rather than grenades :)
It’s my wife’s birthday on the 12th – what better way to surprise her than give her an opp to throw snowballs at me. She’ll definitely enjoy throwing snowballs at my face–
Yes please!!!! I haven’t been in a snowball fight since I lived in Fairbanks, Alaska!! And never one this large and fantastically coool!!! : )
My wife and I have been paying off our wedding and saving to start a family. We haven’t done anything fun in months, but we happen to be heading to Seattle (from Portland) this weekend. This sounds really awesome, would love to have tickets. :)
make this free if you want to break a world record. Times are hard and do you think people really have 25 dollars just to play in the snow????
yay! snow!!
This would be awesome!
I would love to win tickets so I can cream my kid-I owe her a face-full of snow!
I’d love to be part if such an epic event!!
this will be awesome !!!
I do hope some adults are doing this and not just putting kids up to this.
Mostly, I want to take out a little pent up anxiety from working retail over the holidays. My guests are in the same place. Personally, I have decent aim and will go for open holes in clothing, be it a bent over waistline gap, or neck opening, where shattered snow can trickle all the way down.
I find snowball fighting openly flirtatious. You learn a lot from strangers based on what they put out and what they take, how they laugh, scream, or curse out loud. And I often find someone fairly aggressive to go to battle with, mostly to push me to my limits.
As for kids… I am often a target for large quantity of kids. They are really the only ones I fear.
I would totally Looove to win these tickets!! It’s my cousins 21st bday and this was what she wants to go do!! Pub crawl afterwards would be an epic 21st to celebrate!!! I hope I can make this happen!! :)
This is my first year in the Northwest coming from the Midwest I miss snow a lot! I would love to join in on a snow fight to remind me of home.
I would love to win because it sounds like an amazing time! Not to mention I already have my outfit picked out.
I would love to be a part of a world breaking event that sounds like so much fun!!
Best Idea Ever. Living in The Pacific NW rocks!
My family would love the opportunity to be a apart and involved of such an event. We are a young family with to young children and have many hobbies and always trying to show and have our kids involved and educated in as much as possible. We are very interested in trying to make this special day!! The only way possible for us to make it to this special day is by giving it a chance at winning tickets!! Thanks for reading and a chance at receiving those lucky tickets! Good luck to all who is trying for tickets too. One last thing I forget to mention is our last name is WINTER!!!!!!!! So we belong at winter activities. Thanks…
Me and my husband are moved to Seattle from Istanbul just in July when the sun is amazingly shining! We were able to live 4 seasons with their all typical features. This is our first year; when we’re just trying to get used to all changes it would be great to see snow again with such a big opportunity! Now it is snow time in Turkey and we’re not able to see for the first time :( With these tickets we would have the opportunity to play snowball again with a huge amount of new friends! And at the same time we could have a chance to improve our English in such crowd with new friends (I can’t count how many English mistakes I did even in this paragrapf here but I’m not able to find them unfortanetely :D). And also we would feel that we’re not alone here very far away from our old friends with making many new friends. C’mon guyssss (I really like using “C’mon” in sentences when possible!) we really deserve it! We can’t wait to show you how many snowballs we’re able to make and throw just in a minute! We were very excited when we heard about this organisation and very sad when we learn that it was just sold out. I hope you’ll read this crying paragraph on this last day of making comment!
I’d love the chance to pummel 5,999 others with winter joy!!
My buddy and I were totally looking forward to this event and didn’t realize that it could sell out! Total bummer! This is something so out of the norm for Seattle, and it sounds fantastic! We’d love love LOVE to have snow much fun!!!
We just moved back to town from Alaska. 5 years of snow, but the best snow is the kind that helps kids and THAT would be a great reason to get cold and wet in the Pacific North West!! We LOVE this idea! Will show up to cheer them on even if we don’t win but would get pummeled with pride if we did :)
I want to win tickets!!! I tried to get tickets, but alas…they are sold out. My friend Debbie just flew in from Florida to visit for the weekend and I would love for her to be part of the new world record! We’re going to try to join in the pub crawl at least.
Thanks for having a drawing and having a list of events Seattle Pipeline!!
Cheers,
Michelle
