I am the one in the long green sleeves. I use to do this every weekend. I ended receiving a concussion from one of the larger swords. I miss this club and the people in it.
OMW... the SCAdian in me was screaming "Non-rigid parry, it's legal!" The BYU-I student is wondering why I can't find these awesome people here NOW. And my inner child is eying my roommate and my pillow with a devilish gleam...
Many people think this is just strange college students, but the fact is there are many out there - you may call them LARPERS, or SCADIANS, or geeks or just plain weird, but I call them normal, fun and more accepting than most people in this world. Boffers Templar - YOU ROCK!
@1taffycat i saw some guys with 'real' medival weapons and stuff in the fieldhouse a couple times, from what I observed they weren't running around outside on campus full out killing each other. But I haven't been on campus that long, I don't know if times have changed or just that I haven't observed these full scale battles. Do you know?
@Zebeldarebel there's a couple of groups around BYU (some of them are BYU clubs and some aren't) the Quill and the Sword is BYU's medieval club which has been around since 1997 and although they did do some full scale battles similar to this they recreate a lot more of the history, not just the fighting which is why you probably didn't see much of them. The other groups around, Battlegaurd, Arma, etc. just do fighting. It all depends on how many people you have and where the battles happen.
The pathetic commentary is that alcohol was NOT, contrary to public appearance, at all used in order for these "posters-against-home-schooling" having such a repulsively good time!
These are the rogue supporters of Napoleon Dynamite - Enough Said!
that is the most retarded thing i have ever seen my fellow students do. Shouldnt the guys be dating the ladies because i know quite a few who complain about not getting any dates

I think this is the difference between BYU-Idaho and BYU-Provo.

It likely took at least a little work and orchestration to make this happen. Nice music choice, too.
