Ay! NYRF cast member here!! Just came across your video. These are great tips!! And exactly the top tips we give patrons. Thanks for coming and loving our little Shire! (I may or may not have made a cameo punching some guards on the chessboard haha!)
I grew up there, started going when I was 2 back in 1997 and my last year was 2012. I performed on stage there at 10 years old, was in the cast in 2010, worked at many booths, met my wife there, etc. So much has changed from what the faire was when I woke up but I'm glad to see some has not. I have since moved...love from WY
I went back in the early 80s-they had drench-a-wench & soak-a-bloke, lol. You would throw wet sponges at the actors and whoever you hit you would kiss! I got the Prince-gorgeous guy-and good kisser!!! 😂😂😂 The town drunk dove into a trash can and came out with paper plates with mustard and ketchup all over him. It was the best magical adventure I ever had!! I hope they still sell mimosas cuz I am going in 2023. Great video, omg-it has grown so big!!!! Sterling Forest is so beautiful. Picture perfect. Fun to dress up, too!
Oh my gosh that sounds like a blast!! How funny! Thanks for sharing! Oo mimosas would be great on a hot day there, I didn't look too hard but I only ran into beer and wine lol I can't wait to go and dress up this year too!
I go every year…. Love it there! .. Another tip, bring a water bottle with you… There’s a faucet by the privies when you first come in, to refill your bottle… Save on that drink price
I noticed you had a shot of a sword swallowing act and I recognized him!!! got to see lynx at two different fairs and I enjoyed it very much each time :]>
Haven't been there in gosh.. nearly 30 years. Had free tickets. I want to go back and try to match up different points to the old Sterling Forest Gardens that was there from 1960-1976.
The east coast is pretty humid but not as bad as like Florida or Mexico 😅 since New York is pretty up there you'll find a lot of nice breezy days! And it's great when the clouds are out without rain
