NO CLUE what they are for, since the ride wasn't with them. I find it hard to think that they'd go out into the pond... But I think it'd be funny to put one in the mud pit! ! Probably someting he got cheap, and will eventually find a use for. Larry is good at grabbing stuff like that when it is available, then finding a use for them a couple years later. Got to give the man credit. He finds some of the oddest things. Then he also finds unigque uses for those odd things. |

I'm not positive, but I believe Pipers is doing a log ride.
My friend Leah (the girl who worked for Hack and Slash last year) will be working for Piper's games this year (I think archery) and I remember her mentioning that her brother will be working with them as well, but he was doing some sort of ride. If I remember correctly, she said a log ride.
So, those could be for that.

Yes, Piper's is doing a log ride this year.
They bought cars off of a log ride, they are going to hang them both vertical and horizontal and people will climb in a hopefully get dizzy. As Britny mentioned, my brother will be one of the pushmonkeys for this ride.
Andre was really excited about it, they way she was describing it to me it seems like it should be a huge draw. It will be over by the fencing field and the old throwing board. I say old because it was torn down and rebulit in another location.

Black Knight, you are so smart a Medieval Amusement Park would be totally awesome!!!!
Now, if someone would just build one. I'd be there all the time.
I did hear from numerous people who saw the pirate ship that it was totally cool and that on Media Day it was open and the Media and everyone that was there fell in love with it. So it can't be that bad. I can't wait to see it. It sure will add volumes to the Drift Inn area. Actually, now that I think about it a pirate ship would be a perfect fit in that area. Yeah!! I can't wait to see it and all the other changes this year at faire. Only a few days left before it opens.
I don't care what happens at faire (changes) as long as we always have a faire to go to.
Miss you all and see you soon.

OMG . . . . I am not insulting the choice of acoutrements that Larry has added to the faire this year, as they really sound promising in a way, but the last post here is SUCH a brown nosing, turd licking, anal kissing post it's almost insulting to the faire in its own way.
Propaganda went out with the McCarthy admisitration, please don't plague us with such sappy kiss-up posts. We know you love the faire. If you are so insulted by what Joe has to say, then do the mature thing and just don't listen to him.
This is getting so old.
The only people who watch this site are the same regulars who have watched it from three years, and the cast and crew. There are so few outsiders that visit this site that it doesn't matter whether you make these statements or not. That is one of the reasons why it's such a perfect place for Joe to come and vent his feelings - because he really can't do any damage to the faire here.
I frankly don't want to hear it anymore. I don 't visit this site because of it. But everynow and then I come over to see news, and I get the Daily Enquirer and George Bush's Publicity Manager. Just get on with it. Larry bought a soda stand and some log ride cars - SO WHAT? Cool. A pirate ship? Awesome.
Done. Over. Ended. Wheeeeeeee.

I don't feel I have insulted the faire at all. That was no ass kissing in any way. I just posted how I felt and like it or not we all have our own opinions and we don't need to like each others ideas. I personally thought the who idea of a Medieval Amusement park would be cool in everyway. No it won't be as intimate as Great Lakes but it still would be very cool. From what I hear Larry didn't buy the pirate ship or the log rides Mike the guy who owns Piper's Pub bought them.
I also can't wait till faire starts. I miss everyone, the friends I have made, the crafters, entertainers, everyone.

well i say oh well. i love faire . I put in help on clean up. our kids are adults we have grandchildren and if one thing i know is you gotta have something for kids either period or not. Parents wont bring kids unless kids can have fun!!!! it can not be all adult stuff. NO I dont want see whole Faire go Disney aimed at 5-8 yr olds but there still has to be an area that is just for kids.
