Look out, Brooklyn. The roughest, toughest women in North America are headed your way. And they’re packing a down-stuffed punch.

Yep, the Pillow Fight League is coming to New York City on Jan. 19. The event promises to be “the craziest, most insane live show the PFL has ever had.” I believe it, and I’ve never […]
