A binomial coefficient identity due to Zhi-Wei Sun is the subject of half a
dozen recent papers that prove it by various analytic techniques and establish
a generalization. Here we give a simple proof that uses weight-reversing
involutions on suitable configurations involving dominos and colorings. With
somewhat more work, the method extends to the generalization also.
