After the overwhelming success of last night’s snowball fight, more groups are trying to extend the winter joy for another night. After all, tonight’s Primal Scream provides pretty much the perfect war cry for the start of another battle royale. One Facebook group is here, while tipsters tell us there will also be an aerial battle across 114th Street between Ruggles and John Jay. Good luck, warriors.

@Oh it happened. You just missed out.
@hoax the john jay ruggles fight was a hoax, nothing happpened. great reporting bwog.
@Best part of last night was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgMfaI8iY3Y
@Anonymous yeah – doesn’t anybody have finals?
@Anonymous this is so stupid
@John Jay NEVER STOOD A CHANCE!
@senior I always root for upperclassmen but I think they’ve got the strategic advantage there with the whole 14 floors thing (height and #s) … I’d propose a carman-hogan battle but it’s the same shit, so I think I’ll have to get my licks in on South Lawn – good luck tho bud
@Although... John Jay has a meager supply of windowpane snow. While Ruggles fire escapes are well-stocked.
@yo don’t have a facebook — what are the details???
@... you dont get to know as punishment for not having a facebook. social FAIL.
@The details are you fill a bucket with snow, bring it to your room, and launch snowballs at the adjacent dormitory.
@war on fun i know this is a horrible question, but I remember from the high school program that you could not throw ANYTHING out your window or you’d get “expelled”. I don’t remember seeing that in the housing packet for undergrad about that but…does this rule apply to snowballs you think?
@Possibly, but this is a good example of “if enough people do it, they can’t do anything to us.” Snowball away!
@war on fun pt 2 yeah i agree.
also, wow, i meant to say “seeing anything about that in the housing packet” and not the monstrosity of a sentence that came out in its place…i blame finals.
@aerial assault The battle begins with the first sounds of the primal scream. John Jay and Ruggles residents, prepare yourselves…
ps. don’t walk along 114th tonight!
@Props For the new picture display feature.
@nice nice minus the bear reference!
@speaking of movies 2 CAN YOU DIG IT????
@not cool.... COLD! to whoever tackled me!
It was well worth the cold though.
@john jay resident wait don’t we lose housing for throwing stuff out the windows?
@wah wah wah wah wah I’m a baby
@speaking of movies... WARRRRIOORSS! come out to PLAAAYYY!!!!!
@electric boogaloo was one of the best movies of the 80s. period.
@agreed the exposure is just perfect!
@Varun Nice shot, Hans!
@Hans IS MY HERO.
@Streaker #1 ’twas cold but def. worth it

Vote: Yes / No
@potential streaker use facebook to advertise, its faster
@lol this would be a great photo to show people and for the columbia website had it not been for mister ‘i think my testes just shrank so much my scrotum is now concave’
@Yay! Can’t wait!
@It looks like there’s someone out there with no clothes on. Just to the right and below of center. Haha – awesome.
@Hans Later photos indicate he was, in fact, wearing short-shorts. Moments later, someone tackled him.
@Wow: Hans, that is a beautiful shot.
