'''Black Friday''' was a contemporary highly realistic larp run two times in [[Italy]] in November [[:Category:2014|2014]]. It was a non-profit larp set nowadays in a Wyoming small mining town and it was organized by a collective of authors and larp organizations coming from different parts of Italy, traditions and styles. The distinctive trait d’union of all the people involved in the project was a Nordic-like style larp, still very niche in Italy.
==Statistics==
The production had 140 participants split in 2 larps.
