jousting commercials? don't have a clue what you are referring to--haven't seen it. :laughing9:

New "reality" show to air.....mid-evil jousting.......aromor, horses, jousting rods, the whole "dash to a clash" just like in the good old days. :laughing7:

oh yea, ok, now I know what you are talking about.

reality shows bite after a while. a few are ok but then they throw just any old reality show out there and it gets crazy.

should be cancelled very fast I would think!!! :laughing9:

but then again, if a show has horses in it, it can't be all that bad :laughing7:

nah, won't be watching.

I've never seen a reality TV show, watched a few that were said to be reality TV shows, but I've never actually seen a true reality TV show. :laughing9:

shows are edited to make drama as usual. I tell ya one thing some of those reality shows made millionaires out of losers :laughing7:

Maybe the can get lots of participants from maryland...jousting became the official sport of Maryland in 1963. I'm so proud to live there...moved there not born there

Yep, there is plenty of jousting in Maryland. There are jousting clubs. They actually lance iron rings about 2" in dia. not each other. Now the renisanse festial has real jousting. They use lances that break reall easy, but sometimes the tempers flair and it gets real nasty for real. If I lived back in those days, I would have been an archer. If I was born 50 years later than I was, I would have been a sniper. I did make expert in the army. Frank

let me know when the good old style "gladator games" , fight to the death for a million bucks comes on --with the way things are going lately --the old roman motto of give them "bread and gladator games" to entertain the masses as the country falls apart at the seams can not be far away.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. :notworthy:
