Has anybody been there? The fair was pretty cool. Tons of mead and beer along with big turkey legs.

If your in the NY area, I suggest you check it out.

They had a guy to throw rotten tomatoes at, lots of archery, knife throwing, and axe throwing. It was just a great time.

I'm holding the mead of course.

True. The ones by my town in NJ were horrible. But, the one in NY was only about 2 hours away. I think its considered one of the best. Well, if your ever on the east coast during the summertime, Ill take you.

Could be arranged bud! I will be travelling from November onwards and i have 2 years to gain some sort of legal citizenship in Australia (sponsored employment/marriage). If i dont and my visa runs out, i wont be coming back to Ireland, but moving onto the states and probably make sure to visit all of you lot (as long as they wanted to!)

I like some nerdy stuff but this is up there with Dungeon & Dragons in stuff that's far to nerdy for me.

I was about to talk about how its perceived as such then I read your post. Good job on beating me to that.

I've been there a few times, it's definitely worth a visit. They have some good shows. Food is very expensive though. My solution was avoid food, buy mead. :beerchug: Didn't get to go this year, unfortunately.
