the other day.

I am convinced that these festivals are just an excuse for women to dress like whores with their tits hanging out.

Also, I got a semi-cool mug

Also, the turkey leg that I ate was delicious

Also, I ordered a stein of mead, and I got wine instead. I was somewhat upset, because I kind of want to be like Beowulf

Also, why are you still reading this?

I've been to one ren fair before, near Charlotte, it was alright. I'd probably go again with the right group of people. Ran into the NCSU bag pipe group down there performing at the event when I went.

Also, I can no longer think of renaissance festivals without thinking of this:

some of the shows that were put on there were pretty good...

I mean, considering it all had to be toned down because it's a family event, it was easy to laugh at some of the stuff

I guess the jousting was cool
and the wenches

How many people were in attendance?

Is it a safe assumption that you were the only brotha present?

That is the one I dragged you to. There was a maze and there was some wooden spinning ride.

There were about 10 black people there not counting us. that's more than I see at work everyday so that's not that bad

^^ Wow, I figured that a Renaissance festival would make the Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City look like the streets of Mogadishu, haha

in theory, i like the idea of these festivals, pounding back fermented this-and-thats and cooking animals over fires and only barely containing the human urge to kill your fellow man with clubs. but in practice they seem stuffed to the gills with smug liberal arts majors half of who are probably doing their theses on how cavemen ate tofu because bean curds dont have feelings, and the other half is probably getting their "Why beans have feelings" paper published in "Artfag" magazine

^I would think the D&D geek would be the type of geek with a much greater encounter chance than the art the major.

They certainly sell plenty of weapons at those from my experience (having been to only 1).

I went to one of these on a field trip when I was in middle school. The best thing I remember was giant hobby horse, almost 30 feet tall, with five guys rocking it while people rode on it. Now that was cool.
