Swimming in a tomato pool

This just looks absolutely wonderful. I love the deep reds in all the photos and the life in all the photos. Plus how much fun would it be to trounce around in tomato sauce while taking pictures. I can't think of anything better..its like a tomato pool.

Haha...these pictures are pretty awesome. I love the colors! I can't say that I like tomatoes enough to participate in it though... but hey, you only live once right?

That looks like so much fun! I agree, the colors are fantastic. The question is...how did the photographer keep the cameras and lenses tomato-free? It seems like you'd have about two minutes, max, before you became part of the fight.

Can we start our own in Athens?

This is incredible--both the photos and the event. I second the creation of an annual Athens food fight.

here's the question though... where does all the tomato pulp go after the fight?? one of the captions says it's knee deep...

if they made it into soup and ate all of it, they would practically never ever ever get prostate cancer

i can decide if i really like it or am totally disturbed by the whole thing... especially your comment anna! it was funny though...but yeah i do wonder how in the world they kept that lens from becoming a tomato juice victim...and the camera dials too...i mean did he use camera rain gear or trash bags???
