| - I'm not sure why I find it so funny, but I start laughing every time I think about my server telling me, "we have Pepsi, milord."
Our (blue) knight was out pretty quickly. That was disappointing. The food is sub-par to average. Nothing is mind blowing, nothing is atrocious. The chicken was bland, and everything was kind of lukewarm to cool. But whatevs, I had my crown, my Pepsi, and a pretty girl (milady) next to me.
The battle scenes are only (moderately) impressive the first time around. The plot twist in the show is kind of obvious, and I know it would be terribly unexciting to sit through it again. Maybe I'm just spoiled now after reading/watching A Game of Thrones. There's no rogueish imp to love, no petulant teenage king to hate; just some boy-faced knights doin' their choreographed thang. It's goofy and fun, but only in that moment.
I feel for the service staff. They have to keep referring to everyone they see as lords and ladies; "milady, you cannot stand in front of that banner, it's where you take photographs." They're really trying to drive home the whole peasant/wench bit, while probably having a crushing desire to end their lives. Our server seemed to really get into it, but for all I know, he could have been going off into the back to cry while getting my Pepsi.
I can't remember there being (too much of) an issue with parking, but we also got there fairly early.
It's one of those things that you should go to at least once to experience it. Unless you're a child filled with wide-eyed wonder and whimsy (or an adult with anterograde amnesia), I can't imagine you'll want to make a habit of it though. It gets old. Fast.
Kate H. has a review that is so on point that I felt the urge to copy and paste it.
