Mobile Zoo
Renaissance Faire
Phoenix Swords had
the run of the jousting field for Mobile Zoo Renaissance Faire.
Continuing a theme, the Queen of Pensacola (actually Ex-Queen) is
kidnapped and much hilarity ensues a.k.a. "The Ransom of Red Chief."
We had some of our biggest audiences yet and because of the
performance area we adjusted our fight range for over 100 feet, 2-3
events/fights at a performance. Not to mention the natural hazards
of sharing an area with large jousting steeds. We finished up our
day with a fire act at the gate and were invited to the nuptials of
organizer Steve Melei! (See fun gallery at At the faire) We also
made the local front page as Minyon and Fenix did a fight based on
one designed by a member of the British Royal Armouries specifically
for longsword. The weather was great, audience, organizers and
patrons all had a wonderful time!
