Anyone wanna split a ticket?

TO elaborate --
This here is the event:
http://www.ahfi.org/wmaw2001/
I can't make Friday or Saturday but want to go Sunday.
Contacted them to ask if I could get a price break for the one day.
Nice folks but still no-can do.
100 bucks is a big chunk of money.

So - anyone wanna go Friday Saturday while I go Sunday ??

Please E-mail to address in sig below.

Can't split it, but will try to make it there... if I do, does that invitation for tea still stand? Image

Sorry, I was planning on attending the whole thing... Hopefully I'll see you there.

You are right about cost - high, especially if you want to take some of the master classes (which I'm thinking about... The Fiore class is damn tempting after the reviews here...)

Yep,
I wanted to take the Armoured combat with rebated swords - and that class is 50 bucks by itself (if I remember correctly)

Wow! I wish we could afford to go. The armoured tournament is the first time I've seen armour requirements I couldn't pass....the eyeslots have to have 1/4" open, 1/4" bar, 1/4"open, 1/4" bar, on a bascinet, with only 1/2" high. You might bear this in mind, neither historical faceplates or SCA barcages are legal. You'd have to have on made for this purpose. Otherwise, I could pass everything but perhaps the pollaxe - thrusting tips rounded to a dime plus some ? mm thick, (Sorry, I don't do metric.) I don't know how I could add more metal to thicken them without tearing the whole thing up and welding more on.
As I still haven't gotten paid on that butted maille, and have already ordered a full riveted harness, I guess I'll miss it just like Pennsic this year. Sigh...all dressed up but no where to go....
