Now that the characters had all been introduced, there was some blah blah story that Liam was completely uninterested in. Then, at last, the knights started smashing each other.
The First event was pretty great. The knights each took a flaming spear, and then had to charge down a balloon filled with flammable gas. The first one to hit his target won the round. I really felt like I had been transported back in time to the days of latex balloons filled with hydrogen of yore.
It did look really good though. I also made a little film so you can see the fireball.
Oh, I forgot to mention, the evil Black Knight arrived to make trouble and generally be evil. Look at his evil….
Next up was another race-type joust, this time, the knights had to charge in with lances and hit the targets. First one to hit it won this round. 
This event was notable because the Black Knight won it by cheating. He started before the herald blew the horn. This was met with much booing from the crowd.
Next there was some unmounted combat. Three good guys in white against three baddies in black. They traded wins until the goodies came through with their last man and managed to get a victory.
That will do for today, One more update of knights should wrap up the games. Stay tuned.
