Medieval Times is Awesome (and vegan)
A month or so ago, our friend Robot sent us the following message on facebook:
“Good morrow fellow country people!
I have been charged by his royal highness to recruit you to cheer on the mighty knights of our kingdom in the field of battle. The next tournament is being held on Sunday the 7th of June at 4:00 p.m. at Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament.Tickets can be purchased at the peasant friendly rate of2 for the price of 1 using the sorcerers incantation: BOGOWEB at http://www.medievaltimes.com/
We will be getting the standard package as the kingdom is in a recession and we would all like to feast together (people of the plant included). If by chance you find yourself needing a ticket partner let me know and I will try and link you to another of your fellow country people hopefully with sexy results.
Feel free to recruit others non as then we can cheer even louder and hopefully summon a berserker into the field of battle. Please do not link me to the details of this as I plan on surprising my maiden with a ticket.
If you are able to attend please let me know and I will try to have a staging area for us to meet and rush the gates 30 minutes beforehand otherwise you will have to fight you own way into a seat.
For the Alliance!”
Really, how could we resist? We were assigned to the blue section/knight. Once we got over the cheese factor, we had a blast screaming and shouting and cheering and otherwise being high spirited supporters. It really was a bunch of fun, and our theory is that the more people who come the more fun it would be!
Jason was pretty stoked because they were able to put together a vegan meal for him. Yup, the dinner theatre notorious for half chickens and no utensils was able to accommodate vegans!!! We knew that they had a vegetarian option and when our man wench came around we asked if they could make something vegan. Turns out that the tomato soup is vegan by default. They were able to pull together a meal with a veggie kabob, hummus & chips, and rice pilaf. Sadly our man wench was unsure if the garlic bread and dessert (an apple turnover) were vegan, but it just meant more for me.
Jason definitely has a way better beard than the king.
After dinner, we went out to grab a drink in Liberty Village. The majority of our party was still wearing our paper crowns (we forgot they were on!) and we definitely got some strange looks walking into the rather high end pub.
Overall, we had enough fun that we’re trying to get together another group of people to attend with us on Saturday July 18th. You in?

i became a Vegan three years ago and i can say that my health have been very very good. meat and dairy substitutes like soy also works well for the body.
