  Ivrea is a small town near Turin in the Piedmont. The story goes like this: The Battle of the Oranges first occurred in the 19th century when a group of people rained oranges down on other people below, who retaliated 1 by hurling 2 them back.
  伊夫雷亚是皮埃蒙特都灵附近的一个小镇。故事是这样的:橘子之战源于19世纪,当时一群人给下面的人身上扔了橘子,他们就把橘子扔回来进行报复。
  Apparently 3, town authorities over the years tried to nip this in the bud but to no avail. Today Ivrea not only paints the town orange the first week of every February, but there are standarized rules. People in horse-drawn carriages battle people on foot.
  显然,多年来镇政府试图将其扼杀在萌芽状态,但无济于事。 今天,Ivrea不仅在每年二月的第一周将小镇染成橙色,而且还制定了一些标准化规则。 马车上的人和徒步的人对打。
  Another rule: townspeople who do not wish to become a human citrus juicer but want to watch are supposed to wear red hats. Good luck with that!
