At least 2,000 people took part in the Official Dupont Circle Snowball Fight on Saturday afternoon. It was a flash mob with cabin fever, a giggling, hollering, exuberant crowd that spent more than an hour aggressively, chaotically and noisily lobbing snowballs across the circle's park. It was the largest of a scattering of organized snowball fights throughout the city, including one that attracted at least 100 people on the Mall.

The Dupont Circle battle began with the burst of an air horn, then snowballs began raining in every direction. Hundreds watched from the perimeter of the circle, standing on park benches and snapping pictures with their phones. Others coordinated mass launches of snowballs toward the circle's fountain, which a thick mass of people seemed to be trying to defend. People shrieked, bellowed, ducked, ran and laughed -- a lot.
