Comment by MJ Warner on August 22, 2009 at 3:55pm: That was great! The music really adds to the flavor of the moment, great video capture.

Comment by CAN DRAC on August 22, 2009 at 12:39pm: No, we were just witnesses. But had the fight gone international we would have definitely needed water guns! :-)

Comment by LOLA on August 22, 2009 at 11:36am: Were you guys in on this? Pays to carry one of those water guns
