Where there's snow, there's bound to be snowball fights. It's only human nature. <br /> <br />On February 17th, following one of many massive snowstorms that have struck the eastern coast of the United States so far this winter, residents of Washington, D.C., took part in a snowball fight of epic proportions in the city's Meridian Hill Park. <br /> <br />Tens of thousands of workers in the Mid-Atlantic region were asked to stay home from work on Feb. 17 as a result of the snowstorm, which blanketed the District in five inches of snow and hit the surrounding suburbs with upwards of eight inches. <br /> <br />The fight was organized by the Washington DC Snowball Fight Association -- it's a real thing, trust us. Check out some of the snowiest highlights from the brawl in the video above.
