News - Warm-up: EUG2016 and the Water Balloon Challenge set the new record

The Warm-up for the European Universities Games Zagreb-Rijeka 2016 took place with the 2nd festival of fun – the Water Balloon Challenge (WBC) on Saturday, June 04, on the western coast of Jarun in Zagreb.

The three water battles were led by Captain Hrki and his team and captain Plavi Patak. A new competition record was also set – 180,000 water balloons were thrown during 3 team water battles!

The fight was spirited, and the celebration after was spirited as well. There were beer pong contests, releasing glowing lanterns into the lake, balloon flights, enjoying good food and great concerts.

The next WBC is on June 19 on the Quay in Rijeka, and in the meantime take a look at our photo gallery!
