>> Things I've seen specifically for tavern fights:
>>
>> boffer bottles (easy to make from carved-down pool noodles) including a
>> few "breakaway" bottles with jagged edges.
>> Boffer mugs (made from a beer coozie, or the connecting tubes for pool
>> noodles.)
>> Boffer fish (including the notorious Halibut Nevilsbane.)
>> Boffer cheese.
>> Two or three day old French bread (so it's nice and stiff.) Be aware that
>> using bread leaves crumbs *everywhere* so you'd want to do this outdoors,
>> and that bread against a fencing mask gives a cheese grater effect which is
>> not much fun for the person inside the mask.
>> A parrying lobster (this was made from wood, leather and some metal and
>> was *not* designed for offensive use.)
>> A tablecloth that could be pulled off the table and used like a cloak.
>> A boffer bar stool (made from foam and golf tubes.)
>>
>> Other boffer weapons I've seen:
>>
>> Boffer torch.
>> A long, skinny fish with holes in it (billed as a "Swiss pike.")
>> Boffer arms and legs (I made a set of these for Bryn Gwlad's annual
>> pre-Halloween Zombie Tourney. They also got used in the zombie scenarios at
>> Gothic War last year. http://kelly.dwarfworks.com/**lj/GothicWarXIX/<http://kelly.dwarfworks.com/lj/GothicWarXIX/>)
>>
>> Someday I'm going to make a boffer cat, with magnets in the paws, so it'll
>> hang off my opponent's mask.
