so, part 2, in which our hero gets drunk in a field and gets challenged to a fight in a rabbit costume
allow me to explain, I average about 3 festivals a year, knockengorrach at the start of the year, wickerman in summer and as of last year eden at the end and as of eden last year i have made it tradition that on the saturday night i don my big white rabbit costume and join the festivites in it (usually taking it back off around midnight as it is hot, hard to see out of and a pain in the bum to go to the toilet in) and i usually get great reactions ranging from kids hugging me to petrified stares (these usually come later in the evening when festival goers are a bit more intoxicated. last year i even got a mention on a review of eden fest.
so as per normal i did so again this eden and it was all going well until i was approched by a young man who claimed that HE always dressed as the white rabbit "its like ma alter ego like" (i should point out either he really liked chewing gum or was trying to eat his face off from the inside) and asked if i wanted a rabbit fight at 10 oclock over by the devil statue? i obliged for no other reason that "WTF" and went about enjoying the festival.
so come 9:50 i make my way over to the agreed location thinking what a spectical this would be 2 rabbits fighting in front of a giant devil effergy, getting stopped once along the way by to guys asking if i was looking for the other white rabbit as he was looking for me because he wanted to fight me. im afraid he couldnt have been looking hard enough or else he would have found me at the place where HE WAS SUPOSSED TO MEET ME! yes he wasnt there.
now i should point out that i didnt want to fight him and dint waste anymore of my evening waiting around as i was there when i was supposed to be and he wasnt and well I dint come to the festival to fight and after an hour or so i went back to my tent and changed out of the costume as i usually do, only this time i grudged doing it but in keeping it on ment i would probably spend the rest of the evening hot, bumping into things and constantly waiting for some pillhead to jump me.
on a side note i didnt see the other white rabbit at all
other than that it was a great festival.
and the rabbit shall return, oh yes, he shall return.
