A flash mob took place today in the Arts Block. At exactly 1.15pm dozens of students standing in the main concourse of the building simultaneously fell to the ground. One minute later all those taking part stood back up and returned to their normal activities.
The event was organised mostly via Facebook, with over 2,000 people invited to take part in the event. College security caught wind of the event before it happened, with several security guards positioned in the building from 1pm along with the college’s Chief Steward, Pat Morey.
The event’s organisers were using the flash mob to promote a new club night that promises “cheap BOOZE and INDIE TUNES galore!”
Despite the presence of college security, the flash mob took place without any major incident.
