This weekend hundreds of people came out to Coney Island dressed in gowns and tuxedos...
to play at the beach for our latest Improv Everywhere event!
Is there anything more fun than burying yourself in the sand,
having chicken fights,
racing,
throwing a football,
going for a swim,
building sand castles,
and playing kickball in your fanciest outfit...
all while confusing the locals?
No, I think not.

Bahaha I love the last one. So much weirdness. :D
So fun! I love the last one, too. :)
I wish I had a speedo/bikini with all those colors! :-)
At my friend's Vieques wedding, many of us jumped into the pool wearing our wedding clothes. It's so freeing to completely destroy the "I'm wearing my nice clothes, must be careful" feeling! I loved every minute of it, and I was the first lady in.
Great! Good to keep the locals awake!
Wonderful, wonderful!! Warmly, Karen
THIS IS AWESOME!
Totally awesome! Haha I luv the pic with the local dude in it taking a pic of them!

Hahaha. Epic. Improv Everywhere is so clever. We need more of that in this world. :)
Gasp! I wish I had known about this before it had happened. I would have shown up in a gorgeous pink frock. This is all kinds of awesome. When I finally get back to NYC, I'll need to look into doing some Improv Everywhere things, maybe finally use that BFA I have.

Great job!
Too cute! Expensive though!!! Not sure I'd be able to afford to do that, but I LOVE IT! Especially the last photo... that's epic.
That guy in the funky speedo in the second last photo totally disregarded the dress code!
Awesome...I wish I knew that was happening. I would have totally checked it out. So fun.
@Cadence- Everyone bought their outfits for super cheap at thrift shops! It seemed like the average price was around $6
hehe
I just stumbled accross your photos again on another site (though they dont give credit hehe)

I'm pretty much sure you know this, but you have a really fun life!
crazy !!!
an nice pictures.
Wish I knew about this before hand I would so be in :(
I was there! didn't know anything about it but eventually figured out it was an ImprovEverywhere event. It was so cool and I was indeed so confused. We asked a few people whether it was a wedding. One couple said they had just gotten married. One person said they just felt like dressing up. I wondered if this happens often since I hadn't been to Coney Island yet this summer. What a good opportunity for some surrealist-type photos.
ohhh girl!!! you have an amazing blog!!!
kisses from Perú!
Holy freak. This is amazing. WHY did I not know about this!!!??!?!!!
