Sunday Morning

http://improveverywhere.com/2009/09/27/thank-you-invisible-dogs/

On September 27, Brooklyn has been the set of a funny and different Sunday walk, of another "mission" by the group "Improve Everywhere", based in New York City and formed in 2001 by Charlie Todd.
Its slogan is "We cause scenes", in fact it is a comedic performance art group and the aim of this movement is to cause scenes of "chaos and joy" through what they call "missions", that is not-threatening pranks made in public places. This time it's been the turn of an amazing parade made by over 2000 people going up and down Brooklyn with their "invisible dog" leashes. As we can read in the article, the invisible dog toy was invented more than 30 years ago in a Brooklyn factory indeed and, judging from the success of Improve Everywhere's idea, it's been a curious and nice invention that nowadays is still able to draw close lots of people.
Take a look at their website, and you'll find out all the missions made by this team of maybe crazy, but definitely genius folks!
