Joshin' around: A battle over the name of Josh drew a crowd from around the country to a Nebraska park for a pool-noodle brawl. Hundreds showed up at Air Park in Lincoln, a location chosen at random, to participate in the silliness.

Joshs gathered to battle it out to find out who is the rightful owner of the name Josh via a pool noodle battle royale in an open green space in Air Park on Saturday, April 24, 2021, in Lincoln, Neb. What started as a mid-pandemic joke took on life Saturday, as a mixed bag of individuals sharing only their name came to battle it out. The winner was to be declared the rightful owner of the name.

It all started a year ago when pandemic boredom set in and Josh Swain, a 22-year-old college student from Tucson, Arizona, messaged others who shared his name on social media and challenged them to a duel.

Just here to see the fools chide about the pandemic.

At the age of 8, he had an accident that badly affected his eyes. This was very traumatizing for Mukit and his parents. He set them back not only academically but financially. Doctors concluded he would need a corrective surgery.

I never thought I would have to add 'Josh' to my muted words filter.

During a pandemic! Nice.
