I can't speak to the more violent chants this year, as I haven't made it to KRF. But I do know that "Cheat To Win" is traditional for the evil side, and was certainly in evidence that last year I was there (even though there really weren't "good" or "evil" knights that year). Even if the cheerleaders aren't using it, you can bet that some of the longtime patrons are! :)

The "hate" post was meant as a joke folks....just like this board.

No, I haven't been to the joust this year. I was referring to past years in which the chants I mentioned were quite prevalent. My kids still remember those chants from years past, not unlike all of the other long time patrons. We actually thought they were really funny the first few times we heard them. Still it's good to know that they have tried to eliminate the most offensive ones, seems like good judgement given the times we live in (although my kids will be wicked disappointed).

We don't =really= hate KRF and we don't =really= believe it's a bad influence on our kids. If we did we wouldn't have paid the big bucks to costume everyone and bring them to the faire every year of their lives.

Am I to be banished to the "up with rennie's" board now?
