It's a heck of a lot closer to NYC than Sterling, NY.
(Maybe about 1 - 1.5 hours north of NYC)I've been to Sterling Forest to ski. I wonder if the fair is held in the same general area.

the one in arizona has "ye olde ATMs" hehe. seriously, there were ATMs there. i still go every year tho, kids love the archery and axe throw games and walking around seeing the shows. i like walking around seeing the boobages flopping around, and having a good time with my kids. i usually get free tickets too, so its all good. if you dont go with any expectations, you wont be disappointed.

I'm pretty sure I'll be drunk at some point during the event.
It's a good time so don't act like she is "dragging" you there.
Get in costume yourself for the full effect.
As far as the wenches, they dress in corsets that can make anyone have rude titties, even guys. :laugh:
whatever anyone else says, meade + wenches with rude titties is always a good thing
Dude, just find the closest "big ass turkey leg" vendor and grab one. Stuff your face with it and the bad men around you will go away. Those things are freaking great.
plenty of swingers in Renaissance fair crowd .. well atleast in KC area ... and some of them are worth swapping ...
Uh, I dont know about that. From the looks of them, most of them look like they are all natural, if you know what I mean.

I'm guessing its like an Anime convention. Except the costumes aren't as interesting, and there aren't any cool stores, and the people are dorkier ( of course, that might be impossible)

My wife belongs to an organization that was approached to work one of the beer booths at our local Renaissance Festival.
We had to be in costume and had to provide our own.
We had to turn in a list of people who would be covering the booth and were required to have extra people lined up to cover any absences.
Their people came around once an hour to clean out the till and were extremely rude when doing so.
We were required to sell "X" amount of beer in any given day and if we didn't we were yelled and screamed at. How much we sold was greatly out of our control. We don't control the weather, or the advertising, admission prices, etc.
At the end of our "service" to them we were supposed to be entitled to a percentage of the profits above a set amount.
Over the course of several weekends we learned to start keeping track of how much we were taking in and it soon became apparent that they were underreporting how much we took in.
I could go on.
The promoters of these festivals are a bunch of greedy SOB's and we as a group decided we of course would not only no longer participate in that capacity, but would no longer attend any of their events.
This is in Michigan so these could be much different elsewhere.

for every cute girl expect 10 pigs in bustiers.
They are entertaining though....you see a lot of scary people though in regards to how deep they are involved in this.
If you intend to compete, keep in mind it's not really playfighting. Expect to feel pain and possible injury.

There's "playing a part and being an actor" and then there's "jumping on random people who are minding their own business and acting weird."
As to Civil War re-enactements, hell YES I'd go if they had F-22 raptors!
you obviously don't get it...for all intents and purposes when you walk through that gate, you are sent back in time to an Elizabethan era village.
It's called audience participation. the ren faire is an interactive event...
but i guess there's no arguing with a dumbass who wants to see f-22 raptors at a civil war re-enactment.
Right along those lines is this lady. We just could not get over the thickness of her legs. You can see a guys legs just byond her legs, this should give you a good comparrison.
