The SCA "'lets people see history in three dimensions,' said Kevin Reid, whose alter ego, Sir Ragnarr, had quite a day with the victories (and a few deats)" at a demo in Wesselman Park. Rebecca Coudret of the Courier Press (Evansville, Indiana) had the story. (photo).

The heavy fighting demo was part of the SCA's medieval fair hosted by the Shire Riviere Constelle. The kids enjoyed the demo the most "'Mommy! It's a joust!' 6-year-old Paxson said excitedly. 'I like the one with the shield and the sword' he added as he chose a favorite knight."
