WEST POINT, N.Y. — For the twelfth year straight, midshipmen from the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md., have bested the U.S. Army's West Point cadets at the annual Army-Navy Pillow Fight.

The event, broadcast live on Youtube, Twitter, and Vice.com drew in its largest audience yet, as West Point alumni once again hung their heads in shame, having experienced yet another humiliating defeat at the hands of the U.S. Navy.

One West Point alumnus, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said, "It's kind of embarrassing when one of your professors plots a military coup, or when Tom Ricks advocates closing the academy altogether. But losing to Navy? That's a red line."
