Imagine, warhorses tossing their heads in anticipation and stomping the ground as they face off at either side of the jousting field. Each knight holds a hefty 12-foot lance leveled at their opponent from across the field. With a signal from the marshal and a roar from the crowd, the horses launch at each other, breaking from a standstill into a full gallop within seconds. As they converge with a thunder of hooves and a blur of color, the knights grip their lances tightly and brace for the impact. It comes with a loud splintering of wood and a massive shock to the chest. And the crowd goes wild. Fun for the whole family. Open Rain or Shine. Please leave your pets at home. Marti Miernik PR Rep
