'This year\'s Bagwal festival, the annual fair held in Devidhura, India, turned into one of the biggest food fights ever. The yearly celebration is held to honor the local deity, Barahi, and is one of India\'s oldest traditions. Participants pelt one another with fruit and stones, a ritual believed to bring prosperity and health. Over 50,000 people attended this year, making it one awesome food fight.
