The weather for the Medieval Fair is always crappy. It's either like today, or hotter than two ferrets ****ing in a wool sock.

God hates renfaire dorks.

There were no utensils during the medieval times hence there are no utensils at Medieval Times. What would you like to drink? Coke or Pepsi?

:D

One of my fond memories of childhood included the woman who "Lady Godiva'd" through the fair on a horse, with extremely long hair covering up the naughty bits.

My almost-teen hormones almost exploded. :D

I drove by there yesterday on my way to Padthai. I've actually gone to this POS one time. Walked around and went "who knew there were this many completely ****ing insane people in the entire state of Oklahoma," ate my indian taco, and went the hell home. There are so many more things I'd rather do on a weekend than go to this thing I couldn't list them all. Hell, I'd be more inclined to watch AI or Survivor than attend the MF.

the fair is cool, goofy maybe by today's standards (American Idol?). you people are so cynical.

Those ain't boobies, that's torso fat squeezed up thanks to the wonder of corsetry. :eek:

C'mon man, ugly weird people playing goth isn't just "goofy." It's lame. LAME. I won't deny that I've become cynical in my old age, but for ****'s sake, do something worthwhile with your life.

With sticks. It'd be cool if they broke out Excalibur and went hack city on each other.

true, but at least the sticks are sword shaped

and they wear some sort of chain mail, or other kinds of armor

c'mon, kids like seeing some busty titties and eating a big turkey leg. and watching some sociopath science nerds whack the snot out of each other with fake swords and axies and ****. and yell a lot about their "Queen".

If by "chain mail" you mean "Reynold's Wrap" then yes, they wear armor.

would be funny if the new guy to the group took it to a new level of reality and showed up with one of those weapons.....you know, the stick with the spiked metal ball on the chain?

oooops

Oh, by the way: according to Facebook the OU EXTREME! Land Yachting League plans to dress up as pirates, vikings, corsairs, midshipmen, and other "nautical brigands" and pillage their way through Medieval Fair on Saturday afternoon. Should be highly entertaining, if you're so inclined.

Except the raining part.

Heh. I just put up your Grindhouse bet.

Oh, and according to the group, once they get thrown out of Medieval Fair they're going to go find the trendiest poser bar they can find (still in costume, mind you) and go pillage through their liquor supply until they wander down Boyd Street singing sea shanties.

I love Pirates... Booty ARRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

That said I go to the MF every year for a turkey leg and to watch the freaks, its better than anything on tv... will probably stop by after the scrimmage tomorrow.

Its also a pretty big boon to the Norman economy I think the stat is like ~200,000 people attend that thing.

I go for the indian taco, the weirdos and the dogs. It's a great place to dog watch. That whole fighting crap is goofy and sad.

And someone should follow the pirates etc with a video camera. That would be kewl.

It's called a mace. more effective than that stuff in the aerosol can and more environment friendly.

My brother took a friend to a renaissance fair deal and the friend got fascinated with the long sword fighting. He now goes to a bunch of those things and participates. They wear armor and he, being 6'9" and around 350, has taken the name "Shield Breaker". He doesn't play nice and rarely gets invited back. HEH!

Yeah, maces are basically just metal pointy clubs. flail have the chain and the swinging action.
