Though lowlandscot already posted about this and linked to the slideshow here, I didn't want to hijack the picture thread by discussing the article there.

VARF made it into the Richmond Times-Dispatch:

I think a fan quoted in the last paragraph of the article has given us our new motto:

"Some people might think it's silly, but coming here gives you a different look at history," said Evan Povar, a Henrico County resident who toured "Stafford" with a group of friends. "It's like Jamestown on crack."

LOLROFLMAO...uh yea we're "on crack" all right, too too funny! 

The irony is, we're all doing this sober; well as far as I know, and that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!!  Who needs drugs when you have Faire!

Maybe someday the tables will be turned: people will go to Jamestown and say "This is like VARF with sleep apnea."

ohhhhhhhhhhhh too funny!!!  Poor Jamestown, they don't deserve that, really.   ::) ;D

I'm going to assume the quoted "jamestown on crack" does not mean to day we are all a bunch of whacked out junkies.  Oh wait......we are, not druggies, just rennies.

With the coming Clan M'Crack Invasion, "Jamestown on (m')Crack" may take on a whole new, and slightly more raffish, meaning.

AHHHH! Master James! I didn't think you would get in on the bad pun thing... I guess you were just taking your m'crack at it!
Please go ahead and clear your throats... the hack has arrived!

Do you think that Jamestown could ever recover from a M'Crack Invasion?

Depends on the size of the m'crack doing the invading!
