FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally to the field of pillows. More specifically, the present invention relates to a pillow fighting pillow(s) that is designed to be used for a pillow fighting game. The pillow includes a pair of handles that allow a player to have a better grip when using the pillow for a pillow fight. The pillow also includes a pocket inside the pillow for storing smaller pillows. The pillow enables users to swing the pillow with ease via the hand slots or handles and toss smaller pillows at fellow players for fun and entertainment.

BACKGROUND

By way of background, a pillow fight is a common game played by young children, teens, and adults in which individuals engage in mock physical conflict, using pillows as weapons. An advantage of pillow fights is that they are fun, safe and entertaining. Pillow fights are not only played in bedrooms but are also played at birthday parties or other fun events. Generally, during pillow fights pillows would often break or rip, shedding feathers and other padding material throughout a room which can create a mess, and individuals may have to spend long hours to remove the feathers and other padding materials.

Even stronger pillows used for pillow fighting have the disadvantage of providing a loose grip to a player of the pillow fight. Players generally hold the pillow from corners but this also causes easy slipping from the grip of the hands while swinging the pillow. This results in the throwing of pillows in errant directions which can break things in the home or can mistakenly hit an unintended player.

In pillow fights, players move away from each other and can be far away if the playing area is large. Individuals need to run to get close to other players to hit them with their pillow. This results in early tiredness in players which may lead to less fun. Individuals desire a way to engage in pillow fights where they can hit other players that are not in reach of the swinging of their pillow.

Therefore, there exists a long felt need in the art for an improved pillow fighting pillow(s) that provides a firm grip for the players. There is also a long felt need in the art for a pillow apparatus that can be used for an effective and enjoyable pillow fighting game. Additionally, there is a long felt need in the art for a pillow that allows players to play with other players that are not in reach of the swing of their pillow. Moreover, there is a long felt need in the art for an improved pillow that eliminates mistakenly throwing pillows in errant directions during a pillow fighting game. Further, there is a long felt need in the art for a pillow fighting pillow(s) that is lightweight and does not break or tear easily. Finally, there is a long felt need in the art for a pillow that offers optimal fun, entertainment, and convenience while pillow fighting.

The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a pillow device designed to use in a pillow fighting game. The pillow features a top surface, a bottom surface, a front surface, a rear surface, and a pair of side surfaces. The surfaces form an inner cavity inside the pillow. The top surface includes a pair of hand slots disposed therein, and the hand slots are configured to receive and accommodate the hands of a user for firmly grasping the pillow for a pillow fighting game. The pillow also features a pocket disposed inside the pillow and is configured to store a plurality of additional smaller pillows. The smaller pillows are removably-inserted into the pocket using an opening disposed on the front surface, and the opening can be secured using a hook and loop fastener. The smaller pillows are used for tossing at or onto another player that is out of reach of the swinging of the pillow.

In this manner, the novel pillow of the present invention accomplishes all of the forgoing objectives, and provides a relatively effective, lightweight and unique pillow that enables users to swing the pillow with ease via the hand slots, and enables tossing of additional pillows at fellow players for fun and entertainment. The pillow allows users to maintain a firm, secure grip on the pillow via two hand slots on one edge, and thereby eliminating throwing same in errant directions.
