I watched the Knights of Valor (full contact jousting troupe) perform at the Glengarry Renaissance Fair a month ago.
It was the most exciting sporting event I have ever seen. I want it normalised in arenas where the knights have sponsorships and good insurance.
[sicko voice] Yes. HA HA HA. YES
If I recal, only lords or people from royalty where able to not only afford the armor but they where the only ones who could compete...
So the jousters would be congressmen right?
I support this idea as long as peasants get to bet on the outcome.
