garcet71283      As nerdy as it is, this truly is a manly sport.

Ursa_minor      and they all died...

Cheese     Why are they wearing renfaire outfits? I mean, if you're going to do jousting, fine, but take advantage of modern technology and wear some composite plastics or some shit, not 200 lbs. of metal. And side line guys, just wear some jeans and polo shirts. Stop dressing like a nerd and someone might actually take you seriously (no, they won't, but you could pretend).
- 1 for the Diddy/Page monstrosity. Uh-huh, yeah, uh-huh.

FeeFiFoFoTheFifeFifeBrown Picture it. You're there. In front of people. And you're jousting.
There's no spin to put on that. Just revel in it.

Ursa_minor I think you just answered your own question.
|
spikestoyiu If you're going to make the claim that your stupid sport is extreme and full of bumps and bruises and cuts and shit, at least find a guy who has a bruise bigger than a dime to show off.

nidan      Boy, they really draw a crowd.

engrish muffin      3:15 - 3:20: Dude's arms gets mashed inside his armor by a warmblood hoof, fuckin brutal.

memedumpster      I've watched jousting before, it's amazing how a lightweight, breakaway lance can hit just right and go right through armor. Amazing in that D: way.
