the story has made it to AFR

[acroyear]

naturally enough.  those of you who read AFR, please do not echo the words of any festival employee written into a LiveJournal post or comment onto that forum.  We do not speak for faire management, and on a national forum such as that, our words and our opinions can be misconstrued to giving a point of view that is not our own.  On such a forum, our views become "official" regardless of our disclaimers otherwise.

Faire management and the performer who did the stunt both read AFR.  If they choose to give an official response, that is their perogative.  Please allow them that right, or the right of silence.

if you don't know "the story" or what "AFR" is, good.  better left unsaid.

Comments

actually, on this they've been reasonably quiet

when compared to the prejudicial nightmare series of posts on the fact that King Richard's Faire has nothing kosher to eat, won't allow you to bring in outside food, and won't let you leave to eat and return later. some jackass is trying to call them anti-semetic on it. compared to that, this has been a piece of cake.

i did get in there early with the "the performer and the faire management read afr -- if they feel like talking about it, they will. otherwise, please consider the matter closed" post and so far it seems to be working.

its not nearly as bad a rumor mill as it used to be...because most of the 90s core readership now use livejournal as their rumor mill. :D
