Two MASSIVE Upcoming Events: No Pants 2k9 and Ninjas 2009

No Pants 2k9 Adelaide

When: Saturday January 10th 2009

Time: 12:30pm – 2pm

Where: Train leaving Adelaide Train Station (and returning)

This is the 2nd year running this in Adelaide. Last year was great fun and we hope to get a bigger turnout for more fun this year.

The idea is simple:

1. Ride the train with pants
2. Take pants off during the trip (with boxers/briefs underneath)
3. Pretend you don’t know the other pantsless riders and pretend that wearing no pants on the train is a perfectly normal thing to be doing

Now, if you’re thinking that theres no way you’re going to ride the train pantsless consider this… Improv Everywhere run this event every year in New York and last time they managed to get 900 people, thats right NINE HUNDRED, to go pantsless and for them its the middle of winter. In the Aussie summer going pantsless is actually more comfortable than wearing pants.

Come and join us, do something unusual, be part of the ultimate inside joke and give the prudes of Adelaide something to gasp at.

Ninjas vs Pirates, The Battle for Adelaide: The Calm Before The Storm

With less than two days to go before the final battle of the epic power struggle between Ninjas and Pirates hits the streets of Adelaide, its time to ready yourselves for war.  Parrot spies have delivered the location of the Pirate Prince to his father the King and he has locked himself in his cabin, planning his strike.  The Ninjas know that the Pirates are preparing to attack but they aren’t scuttling away and hiding in the hills as they have done before, this time they are standing to fight.  To the death…

Meet: Saturday 9th, 2:30 pm  @ the South East corner of Hindmarsh Square

Remember:

  • Ensure you arrive at the event on time, account for time parking etc.
  • Dress up; Ninjas wear black pants and top and black t shirt for mask.  Pirates wear pirate hats, eye patches, and your meanest pirate snarls
  • Bring PLASTIC swords if you can.  STRICTLY NO real weapons or even anything that looks real.
  • Full details here

    .

If you know anyone whos not doing much on Saturday then rope them in to come along.  The more people we get the better the atmosphere will be, the better the video will look and the more Adelaide shoppers we’ll totally freak out!

Ninja Raid on Adelaide

*This is not a flash mob but a related event promoted and hosted by the AFM*

After the success of our Ninja Recuitment Run we have decided to have a Ninja Raid on Adelaide, hosted by the AFM. The event will involve everyone dressing up as ninja’s and have several ninja events finishing with a ninja photoshoot. Ninja attire is mostly black with a black t-shirt fashioned into a Ninja head piece like this.

We are going to do some extensive promoting of this event with flyers and posters and are expecting to get alot of people to come along. Help us out by putting up posters at your work/school/uni/fridge and of course bringing all your friends along.

AFM Does MySpace

The Adelaide Flash Mob now has a presence on MySpace. While Facebook is quite large and useful for organising events, MySpace is even bigger and we are missing out on reaching a significant number of people who are loyal to MySpace so we have decided to create this group because the more people we get for our Flash Mobs, the better they will be.

If you are a MySpace user yourself or you know people who are then please invite them to the group.

Get Involved

We’ve used many other channels in the past but these days Facebook is the main way we organise and promote our events so that’s where we suggest you follow us. We’ve been running for over 10 years now and many of our original organisers have moved on or are too busy to organise events. If you’d like to see an event happen, taking the lead yourself to organise it is the best way to ensure that it happens. Feel free to contact us through our Facebook page if you’re interested and we’d be happy to lend assistance with advice and promotion (keep in mind however, that posting on our page will only reach a small percentage of our audience organically so in order to get maximum exposure for your event you should consider doing a promoted post which might cost around $30 – $50).
