Not so hard to find Waldo April 4, 2009

Rutgers University had a clever idea. It’s really quite a simple task when you think about it.

Why not gather a world-record number of Waldos in one room?

So… they did.

Rutgers gathered 1,052 Waldo characters, based off the Where’s Waldo book series — good enough for the Guiness Book of World Records. In the end, it was also for a good cause. The lookalikes collected 3,186 children’s books for public libraries in New Brunswick, N.J.
