Yesterday we attended the National Jousting Championship in Aldie, Virginia. It was interesting, even if it wasn't as dangerous or swashbuckling as we previously imagined. It was a competition of speed and skill, with horseback riders ("knights" and "maids") riding at top speed and trying to spear three rings, as small as 1/4 inch in diameter!
Hopefully we'll attend again next year.
