For the first time in history, 700 people danced ball to set Guinness records

On May 12, it is said that an event was held to organize the biggest dodgeball tournament with mobile phone promotion and update Guinness records. It is difficult to judge where and what is going on when the number of adults becomes so much, and the referees are moving around quite hard.

I do not know why I went to Dodgeball with my cell phone promotion, but it may have been a reasonable PR because it was certified by Guinness.
