Nice!

Even if "Sorry to burst your bubble, but this wasn't spontaneous. It was staged by a group of people similar to what 'Improv Everywhere' does." - @FreedomUSA1 is correct, It's still a nice example of something gaining traction and taking off. (I wonder what pct of the ultimate crowd was "in on it" and how many joined once it'd been started.)

Cute. But I can't help thinking that there's something creepy about that "me too" component of the human psyche.
