The Stupidest Questions Reenactors get Asked (and their value!) VIDEO
"Is that fire real?" Every reenactor has been asked a question like that at some point. The obvious, the senseless, the outright silly and stupid. They've become popular memes among the reenactment community, and are the source of both frustration and amusement. But, as silly as they seem, I think these questions provide an excellent opportunity for further education, and can help lead to a positive experience for both spectator and reenactor! -
