MESA COUNTY, Colo. Well Mesa County, it looks like Game of Thrones fever is sweeping through some members of our community.

The popular HBO show debuted the first episode from it's fifth season on Sunday night, and roughly 24 hours later sheriff's office deputies were looking at a scene straight out of Westeros.

Lol. My son is a big fan.

What kind of busybody calls the cops for someone dressed up as a knight?

I beg to differ

Surely you joust.

"What kind of busybody calls the cops for someone dressed up as a knight?"

The ones who Glance-a-lot?

Beware of chain mail scams.

It’s joust one of those things...and don’t call me Shirley.

Why don’t we call it a draw?

The same kind that calls the cops on two kids walking home from the park.

According to the MCSO the man was friendly and apologetic, and he promised to take his hobby inside for the rest of the night

Do people still say we live in a free country?

Indeed, I once lost a King’s ransom to a dishonest moat digger.

We do this ALL THE TIME - the SCA re-enactors will raid WalMart for food, or a sonny’s BBQ for dinner after an event - we call it “Freaking The Mundanes”, and it’s a load of laughs!

The sheriffs office should issue a citation to the "busybody" for bothering them and wasting their time.

LOL.

It’s merely a flesh wound...

...Excuse me Sheriff.....which way to the Crusades....?

I don’t know why the story made me think of this:

Ralph (telling Alice a joke he made up for a presentation at his Raccoon Lodge): So there was this knight, Sir Launcelit, and he was summoned by King Arthur to deliver an important message to the neighboring kingdom and told him to saddle up a horse and ride. Sir Launcelit says, ‘ But your highness, it’ s thundering & raining & lightning outside.’ But the king says its important and he must go. So Sir Launcelit goes to the stables, but finds no horses, just a great big Great Dane. He reports back to King Arthur with the Great Dane in tow and says, ‘ Sire, there are no horses, but if you want me to I will saddle up this Great Dane and ride out into the storm.’ Are you ready Alice; HERE IT COMES! “ Nevermind,’ says King Arthur, ‘ I wouldn’ t send a knight out on a dog like this.’

(Ralph bursts into hysterical laughter at his joke; Alice remains stone faced) Well don’ t you get it? I wouldn’ t send a knight out on a dog like this.’

Alice: I get it. I just don’ t think it’ s funny.

Ralph (points at Alice): You have NO SENSE OF HUMOR.

Alice: Oh yes I do. I MARRIED YOU, DIDN’ T I?

This is going to be a fun thread.
