Have several agents (10+ but the more the better) walking around the city and near each other (like several along a street) all listening to the same radio station. When a certain song comes on air, like 'Don't hold back' from the Potbelleez (only one I could think of), everyone brakes out into a pre-rehearsed dance routine where ever they are. Once the song has finished everyone carries on like normal. Have several other routines for other songs. Whatever songs that are chosen need to be play often on the radio station.

I'm planning on doing this at my home town, Christchurch NZ, and I would like to know if you have any ideas on how to make it better. I don't know if anyone else has already posted this idea.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Mark Pearson on May 14, 2008 at 6:06pm: I'm curently trying to plan a recreation of the food hall musical to take place at my summer work place (a theme park) in the cafeteria and also im getting the dance society at uni to learn the dance "stick to the status quo" from high school musical (and sing it) to perform randomly either before a Uni Basketball game or in the middle of the high street!!

Im doing it for charity as well though, so afterwards after we have gathered an audience we will split up and collect from the onlookers.; ▶ Reply to This

The advantage to this one is that everyone can participate. It doesn’t matter if you have a local chapter or not.

For those of us here in the US, there are those plastic pink flamingos that people set up on their lawn. There doesn’t seem to be any middle ground. People either love them or hate them. Personally, I’m not a fan of the plastic birds but here’s what I’m proposing.

We all go out and purchase a couple of flamingos. You can get them for about 10 bucks a pair. Check out this link.

http://www.centurynovelty.com/detail_421_209-641.html?mr:trackingCo...

We pick a date far enough out so that the flamingos arrive in time. Some Saturday a couple of months out. We designate that date as “ National Flamingo Day”.

You choose some unsuspecting person's lawn. You’ll need the cover of darkness and you want them to be asleep. So late on Friday say 11 PM local, we set-up the flamingos on their lawn along with a sign or a note in their mailbox that says “You’ve been Flocked – National Flamingo Day”.

We can try to document setting up the flamingos but I suspect that it will be too dark.
The next morning we take a few pictures of the flock. With any luck, we’ll catch the target going out and looking at them and maybe even taking them down. Then we e-mail them to a central person who will post them on a site for everyone to see.

I suppose that it could be done internationally, but I don’t know if the plastic pink flamingos are known outside of the US.

What do you think?; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Cal on May 14, 2008 at 11:33pm: Maybe instead of just one lawn, a flamingo or two could be put on every lawn in a certain area. That way travelers would wonder why that town was so crazy, and the flamingo's would probably last a lot longer.

You could even make a big banner, welcoming visitors to "flamingo city: support your national bird" with lots of pink balloons and the sort.; ▶ Reply to This

it would be better if it was done internationally, at least, if not the world, to show that it should be a national day.

and if we continously do it consecutively, it will be even better!; ▶ Reply to This

That, my friends, is how I think this should be done. Agents filter in (sliding on their bellies whenever possible), huddle together, and exchange eggs. Then to exit, they slide away (leaving the eggs on the ground for further audience "huh's?").

A "seal" agent should probably scatter the group at some point, savagely eating one of them.; ▶ Reply to This
