Strung Out
...absolutely 100% bad ass!!! Watched it for the first time last night. I'd seen the commercials but, it just didn't really sink in. Maybe I thought they were using Nerf lances or something?
This is full contact, flat out, old school man to man, horse to horse combat with the ONLY difference between the real thing is no pointy end. You will live through a round. Most likely.
The riders are an eclectic group of everything from what I would describe as typical little horsey culture prissy boys to huge, muscle bound and tatted up stunt men who could be in the WWF.
And every last one of them has to carry their balls around in a wheel barrel.
I am a fan of dirt bikes, UFC, wrestling, football, paintball, Jackass, all that guy adrenaline beat someone, or yourself, up stuff. Add this to the list. Riding a horse, and these monsters are WAR HORSES, rearing up and then CHARGING with the sole intent of nailing your opponent, every pass! No taking a knee here, boys and girls. You get a point if you hit the other rider in the scoring box on his near chest, about the size of an extra large square pizza. You get 5 if you hit it and BREAK your lance hitting him and 10 if you knock the SOB off his mount.
One round these two maniacs just nailed one another PERFECTLY and they both went pin wheeling off, landing like dead cats in a sandbox. It was magnificent.
In any event, I'm hooked.
