[HPFGU-OTChatter] Re: SCA, painful things

[alex fox]

OHMY! As an ex-member of the SCA I understand completely! I was a fighter with a short sword, and a very light long sword, being a 5 foot 100 pound woman. But I had a friend who was 6 foot 8 and about 290 pounds. He fought with two war hammers.He could deliver a killing blow OVER the shield very easily. One day, at a festival, he was hit in the nuts with a morningstar. By a very short Knight. From underneath.  It brought him to his knees, even with the manditory codpiece. A lot of ice was applied. Later, at the feast, the Crown Princess gave him a lovely award. A pair of iron balls. Very fitting!

 who's ol man is wondering why they would have iron balls hanging around a SCA festival. He has obviously never been to one.
