Okay I have only been a member on this forum/ site for 2 years.  I have worked at MRF for 6 seasons.  I have seen the Baron with his goat but never got the "Inside Joke".

I can use my imagination or you can let me in on the secret.  Either way I'm happy!

It all started at WIRF the first year.

Something about the camp ground director, a goat cart and some scotch.

You can start there, and hopefully someone else will fill in the blanks.  (Baron)

We all chipped in to buy him Sally at MNRF later that season.

Goes back further than Wirf 07 Kate.

Let me do some checking around.

I'm thinking Twig 06?

And it's a long story. 

Wants me to tell it?  Start to finish?

Tis WIRF 06. Long (lack of a) story made short: Campground nazi, scotch with no cover, hangover feels like being ran over by a campground nazi on a golf goat cart. That's how I remember it?!?

Sorry, I thought it was WIRF 2006- and the campground nazi there. 

Well, I got most of the story right.

Do tell for the newbies.

Hey, I did have it right.  It was WIRF the first year.  (2006-Got the mug to prove it)
whatever.  Make sure to clue in our new not-friends-yet on Tuesday.  We will all be waiting on tenterhooks until then.

Well...

It's about getting drunk.  It's about the love of faire and the peoples.  It's about goats.

It's also about Xmas.

And newbies Kate?  No newbies.  Just friends that we haven't met yet.
(do we sell their kidneys this year or not DB?)

ok...her goes.  The complete story.  And yes I've got it all archived.  All of it.

Twas the night after wirf.

Not a sober person in the house or the campsite for that matter.

Oh *hit.  Got Bristol this weekend! 

Opening gate...6am there if anyone wants the complete story.

Going to have to wait till Tuesday!

sorry...

pirates rule!  not. (please to note lower case "n")

going to get some pirete garb at Bristol!

(yes, I know I mispelled it.)

Obadiah Jib

Bristol does have a great place to pick up some pirate items.  You should meet with success.

I honestly must admit that I am still confused.

Here is what I understand.  Wisconsin Renaissance Faire in 2006.  A drunken night at the campground.  A goat is involved.  Christmas was celebrated.  A security person was not in the drunken spirit of the eve.

You know some of you folks almost speak in another language...

Holy downpours, Batman! Looks like were gonna have a soggy weekend! Hopefully it will let up by the time we're grillin'....

Marietta Graziella

Geez Louise!  I was there that weekend and all of this doesn't make sense to me.   lol

Sally the Goat...
Nothing clever to say here.  Not enough caffine yet.

Lord Figaro

Sally did some traveling around afterwards too. She got real dolled up. But where is she know?? She didn't even make an appearance last season......Did she??????
