Almost
every Saturday around 3:30 a group of unconventional sportspeople convene
at the Big Iron Doughnut™ in Volunteer Park to share our swordsmanship
skills with like individuals. Helmets, gloves & throat
protection are mandatory to avoid(serious) injury during these group sharing
sessions.
|

Thog's pig-face jousting helmet is around 20 pounds, & has about 12
oz of sweat in it upon removal. |

Thog pecking for worms...You had to be there. |
 |
 
Chris is like Yoda without
the speech impediment. He'll show up, put down his cane, pick up a
different stick, kick ass, pick up the cane again... |

Thog Panting |

I am NOT just standing there. |

Izzy defends his Lady
Ferret's honor. |

Ever wonder what the
spectators are thinking? |
 |
The scuffle shown shown
here resulted in a broken sword.
Lesson Learned: drop the sword & let your opponent hit
you...it's cheaper, and Thog & Dave won't yell at you. ----> |
 |

Dave's a really nice guy...REALLY |

Big Bird's naked...and he's PISSED. |

Chris, where is your sword? |
 |

 |

Thog. You can forget your previous reach advantage. Need I
say more? |

Izzy with the tree for backup. |
What
has 4 arms, one leg and drinks a lot of Gatorade?
 |
 |
 |

Izzy and the Hammer: It's not the length, it's how you use
it. |
 |

Thog is still "alive" here...he just has no legs. Izzy
threw his sword at Dave in this one. |

|
The
First Whack-A-Thog. The outback Jacket got replaced with a leather
one pretty quickly.
|

Thog, Bob & Rule #1: Never forget your codpiece. |

Bob & Izzy & sore knuckles, Oh my! |

This melee shot was black when I scanned it, & there's only so
much time I will spend in Photoshop... |

A rare photo of Hard Rock. |
