Greeting to all!!

Wow that's quite an event!

The one we have is like 2 days total once a year.

--------------------
The Ren Faire that I go to started off small but it gained in popularity over the years and it got bigger.
-
not super big but bigger then it used to be..
-
I think we bringing in like 50,000 People all total per year..

I've always thought it would be cool to go to one of those medieval jousting dinner events. ... always so expensive though!

[galled]

Medieval Times!

Food was marginal, but you're there for the show. I think American Ninja Warrior had one of their actors on recently. (He didn't make it, but his intro was fun!)

Oh! I've heard of those!! I too wanted to go to one.. But The Local Ren Faire, I have, we have a Jousting team. And the final weekend we get to have a Fire Joust !! ( I think it's the Final Weekend > If not it's the second to the final weekend)

[Lemon Cheesecake]

fire joust ??? what's that ??

like flames on the end of the jousts?

what are your favorite foods from that time period? did they even have coffee back then?
(guess I will have to research the history of coffee)

Well.. It basically everything that a Joust is but the lances and some things are on Fire and it's different color flame.. (the jousting is done by professionals and the fire is controlled.. )
-
That I don't know... Coffee did not reach Europe till the 1600s. So Maybe? or not.. I really can't say for certain.

A fire joust would look spectacular at night then.

One day maybe I will get to watch something like that ... now that I know it is a thing ( thanks to you!)

[galled]

Silly me, I envisioned a flamethrower battle!

It does !! It was really cool !!
-

lol I don't think that would be physically possible.. Maybe if Augmented Reality becomes a thing, it can be!
-
Because you can't really use a Flame thrower safely especially in a theater show..

Sounds interesting!

I've seen Hawaiian fire dancers before, that looks cool at night.

It is! And last time, I watched the Fire Joust.. I was so happy that they changed the story from the time before when I saw them..
-
I mean it is also a completely different Jousting Company.. A long, long time ago, When I saw my very first fire joust, it was so cool and then when the second time, I watched it, it was the same story and had the same ending.
-
Let me explain, the storyline back then was You had to cheer for the Jouster that you wanted to win, they gave you the choice between The Undead Knight who was a Good person in life
VS
This Queen that was an evil person in both life and death..
-
And Despite the crowd cheering more for The Undead Knight, The Queen was the winner..
-
And They did the same thing the year after
-
instead of Mixing it up where the Undead Knight would win..
-
Which I think was unfair and made the show stupid... like Our Cheering meant nothing despite both years the crowd cheered more for The Undead Knight..
-
FLASH FORWARD To a Few Year ago (2022-ish)
-
They had 4 Jousters and they each represented One Of The Four Horseman Of The Apocalypse and gave us a better story and it was way more cool and fun then the original ones, I saw..
