Streetwars - London 2007
If you find yourself in London and witness people being soaked by water pistols in a determined but fun way, don’t be alarmed. It’s probably just players from Streetwars doing a hit on someone.
Streetwars is a live game that can take place any time during a three week period. Players have a nominated target who they attempt to soak (”a hit”) to eliminate them from the game. Some basic information and photo is provided for the assassin who then has to stalk, confront or otherwise ambush their victim. You can see more info including videos and news items about the game.
This has been running for the past three years, in the USA, Canada and a couple of European cities. I have a vague notion that the concept is quite old and started on U.S. University campuses back in the 60s or 70s.
After London there is Paris and then Toronto, so if you fancy entering it…Mind you with the present soggy British weather, getting soaked isn’t much fun!
