Sir Nate:
My favorite part about going to renfaires in armor is the look on kids faces and when they say look mommy a real knight.
I got cornered by 3 kids and a swarm of questions asking if i'd slain any bad guys that day.

The happy kids is what really makes it worth it. For some, getting a meet a knight is a huge thrill, and there aren't many knights on the official faire cast, usually. It ends up falling to us, and that's both an honor and a responsibility (in that we want it to be a positive experience).

Agreed!
Sir Douglas:
I had a kid come up and knock on my helmet once. That can be a little disconcerting when you don't see him at first. lol

If you thought that was disconcerting you should ask Sir Edward about intoxicated, lactating mothers!
(ok I took some artistic license with the “lactating” part but that was only to add to the audaciousness!) ;)
