All we have around here is called the Celtic games in Davenport
I kid you not, our Renaissance Fair is called BARF, Bay Area Renaissance Festival. As damned hot as it is during the event, that's about how you feel after two hours of walking around eating fried foods and watching actors joust, badly. It's fun for the kids and I have a lot of friends who work the event as a side gig, but I think I've aged out of events like that now.
To be honest I just don't like events in the south, it's all food so crappy it has to be fried 3 times. I remember the festivals in Iowa were nearly always centered around fresh food. The one I remember most vividly was one a harvest festival at Strawberry Point, right around that time of year we stocked the deep freeze with all the local products. In my adult life I haven't found a vegetable I'm willing to eat, nothing has tasted right since my parents left Iowa and our backyard garden. I absolutely hate processed vegetables. Eh maybe one day I'll get back to a place that has soil instead of living on a sandbar blown in from the Sahara. My grandad was right, can't grow shit here.
