A month ago I blogged about the Human Risk game to take place in Washington Square Park. I signed up for the game, and was looking forward to playing this Sunday. Since we players were supposed to dress up "as if they’re about to ride gloriously into battle" I got a costume together, and figured the boys would enjoy being my "knights." So we got together their helmets, swords, shields, etc. and headed off to Manhattan.
Unfortunately, the game was cancelled. Worse, they didn't bother to tell any of the players about it. (They put a notice on the main site, but not the page dedicated to the game which I checked; nor did they send me any email; nor did they send anyone to the appointed meeting place to tell the players.) Mike was a sad panda.
Fortunately, Circus Amok was doing their leftist clowning in another part of the park, so the boys were at least entertained, even if they had no idea why the nice bearded lady was talking about immigration reform while the tumblers tumbled. (Debbie: "Where's a circus when you need one? Right over there!")
We'll get another chance to wear our magnificent costooms and brandish plastic swords at the Fort Tryon Park Medieval Festival on October 8th. I doubt they'll cancel that!
