We made our annual trip to the Minnesota Renaissance Festival. This year we caught a few shows we haven't seen before and tried all kinds of food -
Our first stop was the Danger Committee, a group of jugglers and knife throwers.
Next was the Viking Encampment, a fun group of Viking reenactors to see one of their weapons demonstrations.
After was a stop to see the oldest show at the Renaissance Fest, Puke and Snot, with a preshow from Monkey Boy.
Then was a classic visit at the Joust, for one of the most fun battles we've seen, with one of the most badass knights, Sir Jacob, who took a real injury for our amusement.
One of our newer favorite spots has to be the Veggie Justice stand, a place to see people pay to get insulted. The stand's been there for years, we recently discovered how amusing it is to just sit a watch for a while.
Before wrapping our day at the Crown Stage for the Rated R showings of Johnny Phoenix and The Tortuga Twins.
And, of course, FOOD, lots and lots of food options all around the festival grounds.
