I've been to a few Reniassance fairs, it was a weekend event the one I went to, there was an entire day of LARPing, it was awesome.
I have never done LARPing, but it seems like a blast. I would like to take the role of a wizard
All the people in costumes at renaissance fairs make me feel like I am back in folk times.
That's the point! I think the horse riders with the huge harpoons are funny, too.
Harpoons are generally used for fishing, I think you're meaning the Jousting sticks they use, those things are so scary!
Yes jousting sticks if the correct phrase. They can sometimes have great food
The force from the impact of a jousting stick can sometimes exceed three and a quarter times the body weight of the rider.
