True. Actually, Duke Deaton warmed airport security in advance his
briefcase would trigger their new metal detectors. He explained the
chain mail in the briefcase & SCA, they laughed, and we boarded. Good
thing no one checked. There was a Kirby short sword buried in the mail.
Care Cheri of the Fallen Stars, Deaton's duchess.
How about the muggers attacking the female fighter or other armed SCAdians? I've heard several variants, all of them happened to "someoneOoh, ooh, Mister Kot-tair, I know that one! %^)
in another kingdom a while ago."
That was Sir Koppel fun Baurieux, once of the East, now
inactive (so I understand) in Trimaris. The story is that
a group of Scadians including several ladies, all fully garbed,
were coming home on the NYC subway after an event when they were
accosted by muggers, that Koppel defended them with sword and shield,
and that he was knighted for it (on March 18, 1970).
I once asked Koppel about it and he confirmed that the incident *did* happen, but that he was already a knight at the time.
