Just when you thought you were too old to hang out with the Smurfs…and accept the fact that maybe they don’t exist, you find out that they are alive and well, and living by the hundreds in Croatia! Gargamel too! 🙂
This Croatian Village was sure they had beat the record of 241 Smurfs assembled at once. But as the story goes, the Guiness Book of World Records gave the village the wrong info, and the official number they needed to trump was actually 451. Sadly though nearly 400 grown men, women, and kids showed off their “inner-smurf”, a group of students in the UK still hold the prize. Amazing to see how pop culture remains timeless and travels around the world. For more on this news-breaking story, check out the Daily Mail.
