A real sport...

@thestarsandbars Dude this use to be a official sport in the USA until 1910! WTF!

They saw it as a Inhuman sport so they bend it as a official sport in the US in 1910. Funny we have football and MMA now a days. Brig back JOUSTING! Hell, make it as a Olympic sport too!

@smurf4u2 do you still have to be noble to compete?

Enough to say UK is manlier than the US.

@xxTeutonicKnightxx And get the pussies out of fencing and wushu and make them real sports again.

@Armahx They do it across the horse because it is traditional, You want to take the lance on your shield arm. Keep in mind that this sport has been around since the late 1200s.

[Armahx]

Why do they do it across the horse, my guess is because the other way would be fatal or rip arms out of the socket.

This is real.... You're just a fucking idiot. A knights tale was a movie... And if you knew anything about this sport... Like I do (Sydney jousting Champion 08-present) You'd know that the cedar lance was banned in the late 90's... As it was not only to dangerous to compete with, but far to costly to produce.

Perhaps it's best for you peasant folk to sit this sport out.... and leave it to the pro's

There's a place called "Medieval Times" that has venues in various parts of the USA where you can be served a meal "medieval style" (by a "wench" not a "waiteress") and watch jousting, etc.

(Toronto Canada also has a "Medieval Times" venue)

Sometimes "Renaissance Fairs" or "Medieval Fairs" are held during the summer months in the USA. Sterling, NY used to have one. Florida also has one or two "Fairs" of this type.
